Wish
by Shinri Ayase
I feel the falling salty tears
A shadow of the twilight years
Of facing my most dreaded fears
Misunderstood, yet oh so clear
I wonder if my fondest wish
Is one you you'd fail to understand
And if you did, I'm not surprised
Fate after all, had all this planned
For many years, I wandered far
I tried to seek my one desire
So I may go on living life
Believing that I still have fire
And when I realized my wish
I knew my mind and heart were set
Too late, I found I loved you still
So my wish, I do not regret
But should my hands betray my heart
And should I take your life instead
My wish, not granted, gone to waste
Shall leave me, empty, worthless, dead
What wish should I be wishing now?
A wish a star shall grant somehow
A wish of smoothening my brow
Wish of peace, an end, a bow
Back
