I Wish Never

I wish I never got out of the Navy. As I look at how my life is now. The Navy gave me the opportunity to see more of the world at the Military’s expense. I sometimes feel like my family would have been a lot better off in life experiencing other countries and their customs and cultures. Giving everyone all new insights and perspectives in life. Being able to explore different countries together le...

I Wish I Never…

I wish I never looked this way

Although I know I’m beautiful


I wish I never felt this way

Although I can’t help it


I wish I never looked back at things

Although I stress about it too much


I wish I could be normal

Although God created me this way


I wish I never gave up so quickly

Although it’s so easy to quit


I wish I was me

And that’s my one wish that always comes true

It may take time

But ...

Confessions

*the one that got refused*

I wish I never

Got her in my head,

And gave her subtle hints

About wanting something more.

We were completely fine just as friends,

And now I have screwed everything to destruction.


*the one that refused the confession*

I wish I never

Turned her down,

When it was so obvious

My brain was telling me to do otherwise.

She was so sweet toward me and just wanted someone....

The Wishes Of Me.

I wish I never felt this way,

Turmoil ruins my perfect day,


I wish I never felt so sadly,

When remembering no one’s next to me.


_Why does it choose to erupt in me,_

_This sudden feeling of jealousy?_


I wish I never longed to be the same,

Longing to play a copy’s basic game.


I wish I never forgot to embrace,

My skills, my style, and even my face.


_Why would I feel overwhelming envy,_

_Over so...

I Wish

I lay in the middle of the woods with the stabbed on my stomach bleeding out, as the sun was going down slowly and night fall was about to start. The wind blows slowly making the leafs dance around on the ground. Now,No one’s around. No one is here to help me. I have no one on my side… I just wish. I wish I never said anything, if I never did I wouldn’t be in this mess. I wouldn’t be on the ground...

Second Chance

I wish I had never pulled that trigger. If I hadn’t, maybe things would be different. I would be snuggled on a couch at home, petting my dog, my wife beside me, my children playing on the rug.

But no. Here I am instead, in this dirty rotten jail cell. I sit on the cot, armed with a filthy sheet and a thin, moth eaten blanket. I curl up on it, tears streaming down my face as I think of what my lif...

I hurt you

I wish I never hurt you

This pain in your eyes

But I didn't know what else to do

It was the only way to get you away from my life


My mother is peacefully gone

And my father has left me

So what's done is done

But you were my everything


I never would have hurt you

If it was a good reason of that mile

Because I didn't want was happening to me happen to you too

I couldn't bear to not see th...

I Wish I Never

I wish I never smiled like this,

I wish I never laughed like I do,

I wish I never loved like I do.


I hate the way my chin looks when I smile.

I hate the way I get made fun of for my laugh.

I hate the way I fall for anyone who is kind to me.


All just because I haven’t had nice people often.


I wish I never knew you Mady,

I wish I never said what I love you Sam,

I wish I never lost you ellian...

I Wish

I wish I had never noticed you

Who stood out from the crowd

Now I know I’ve been swimming

In those deceitful eyes of blue


I wish I had never fell for you

So innocent, you seemed

Did you know this love would fade?

Or be ripping at the seams?


I wish I had never played your game

You drew your bow and pulled it back

Struck me with immaculate aim

Your arrow poisoned my heart and it faded to black


I...

Pity Games

I wish I never met you then

I would never hurt again


Cause I’m so caught up in you lies

And all your narcissistic cries


Pity games are not much fun

And I’m unsure when ours begun


I’m just so sick of all your excuses

And our friendships toxic misuses.



I wish I can ditch you here

But you refuse to disappear


And I feel stuck in your web of hate

And I’m too tired to debate


So I’ll just feed ...
