I Could Wish For Better

by Paralyzed   Jun 9, 2008


I'd never ask for anything,
That wasn't mine to take,
Prideful in my wicked ways,
Sleeping or awake.

I'd never say a single word,
I didn't really mean,
Words, the most important thing,
The truth is so serene.

I'll never cry a single day,
For love that I have lost,
If I held it and still failed,
That lesson is my cost.

I'll never fail to let you know,
The feelings I surmise,
And even when you doubt it all,
You'll see it in my eyes.

I could wish for better things,
Life forever altered,
I'd rather have the things I've earned,
Even when I've faltered.

    you pieces seem so unforced and relaxed and just smooth like it doesn't seemed pushed or defyed by gravity, if you now what i mean

    but you have a real good style of writing and never try to write like anyone else or fixed you style to be like anyone else
