i wish

 i wish i brought you more peace

i wish i had enough of it to share 

i wish i hadn’t said the things that sought only to hurt you

when i had plenty of hurt to spare 

 things were more simple

i were stronger 

 you would call 

 we would talk into the night

i would hear it all from your mouth

we could speak the language only you and i know

i could be the person i want to be when you’re around

i could handle the storms 

you were here
