I wish I could
Watching the way facts evolve lately, I wish I could
hear good news.
Listening to the radio, I wish I could learn something
graceful.
Reading history books, I wish I could understand bad
actions.
Writing weekly, I wish I could ignore sensitive
issues.
Sleeping and dreaming, I wish I could escape from our
reality.
I really wish I could change so many things going
wrong.
Unfortunately, I cannot.
I can behave well and play my role with dignity.
I also can treat people decently and trust my
instincts.
I can think of the way things should be.
I do the best I can.
I wish I could switch to a carefree mindset more
often.
I wish I could convince myself easily.
I wish I could act selfishly.
Sometimes I even wish I could move to the future, just
out of curiosity.
I wish I could keep my happy-go-lucky approach
regardless of the context.
I wish I could avoid hard decisions, sometimes.
I wish I could benefit from adulthood challenges only
when I choose.
I wish I could spend enough time pursuing my
interests.
Looking back, I realise the lessons from wishing and
trying.
Reviewing a mix of strengths and flaws, I wish I could
do the same, repeatedly.
Living I teach myself to balance a love of adventure
and excitement with an instinct for caution.
I wish I could accept commonly known rules without
questioning.
However, it is only a wish.
Maybe I could.
Actually, I cannot.
I make the best of it, I guess!
