Analysis of WISH



What do you wish for?
If you were given an opportunity
make a wish
what would it be?

I wish?
This feeling, this love, these emotions
the good memories, our first kiss, your sweet scent, those pretty eyes, the glow when the early morning sun comes in contact with your skin, its radiant look
how I'm all caught up in you, not to mention the cutest smiles I've ever seen that sets my heart ablaze.
The beauty of her, all of her, from the tiniest cell to her entire system.
what more can I wish for?
I remember
how good it felt to love and have been loved by her
was the most beautiful thing that ever happened on my Earth
If I have one wish
I'll wish to relive the days we once had and never let go of you again my forever love.
