I WISH

I Wish
I wish that I could be with you,
my head upon your chest.
To hear the beating of your heart
as we relax and rest.

I wish that I could be with you,
to toss my cares away,
To have some fun and laughter,
if but only for that day.

I wish that I could be with you
when tears have stained my face
To have you kiss them one by one
until they are erased.

I wish that I could be with you,
more than just now and then,
To feel your lips when you kiss mine,
I'm breathless once again.

I wish that I could be with you,
to linger in your smile
To find a way into your heart
and stay in there awhile.

I wish that I could be with you,
to say three words to you
To try and read what's in your heart
when those three words are through.
