If I had one wish

For you it would

Go like this...

That I would be

All that I could

In your eyes

Measure up

To all the standards

Impossible to reach

If I had one wish

It would be

For you to accept

Yourself

And not

What people

Want you to be

The notion that

Someone

Should "be like me"

If I had one wish

It would be

For you to have

Moments like this

When your heart

Can expand

Beyond the boundaries

Of who and what

Others can do for you

To embrace

The endless

Options of

What you can do

For yourself

And others..

Whatever one believes

There exists reciprocity

What you give

Is what you recieve

In return

Such grief is unnecessary

There is soul sanctuary

In a cathedral

Not built on the shelf

Of tradition

But found deep

In the unconscious mind

Watch out for

What you find

If I had one wish

For you

The light

Of possibility

Just might

Turn on...
