I Wish...

I wish to be a black rose,
A strange, exotic beauty,
An outcast from all those.

I wish I was a notebook,
someone else controlling my emotions.
Maybe I wouldn`t be so shook.

I wish I was full of grace;
A godly, balanced, healthy girl,
Along with the pretty face.

I wish I could be a sweet kiss,
To fall upon your lips each night,
And make sure your swelling with bliss

I wish to be a tall, strong tree.
I`d give oxygen to lungs,
And let children climb on me.

I wish I was a small bird,
To fly with freedom and joy,
To be not only seen, but heard.

Hi there lyssagurl_101,

I actually read this as a poem, even though you put
it as a story. I really thought the sentiments
behind this piece, were beautiful...especially:-

I wish to be a tall, strong tree.
I'd give oxygen to lungs,
And let children climb on me.

I wish I was a small bird,
To fly with freedom and joy,
To be not only seen, but heard.

I love trees and birds, the two seem to go hand in
hand and I think that more people should think like
you. A stunning piece of writing.

Jenny.
