How I Wish

How I wish it could’ve been you and me,
A simple request but just couldn’t be.

So much for the dream that I would’ve behold,
Not all that glitters, sadly, is gold.

A wish wrongly conceived is a nightmare to be,
Rushing like a boat against the raging sea.

Oh, how I wish… how I truly wish…
My world to be like that of a true love’s kiss.

Alas, good as it seems, it just cannot be,
I may be a dreamer but I still have to face reality..

Nothing in this world is eternal,
Even dreams are considered temporal.

Time to face the reality of this,
It doesn’t matter whatever the how I wish,

Until I realize you and me never really exists…
