I Wish
If I had a care to give
I would not live as other men
and if I knew how I should live
I'd wish I could live it over again
For light at once dreamed of me
as I in the light should somehow be
and gently took my wayward hand
and taught me how to be a man
The breezes of an ocean lost
Found that I was worth the cost
and dipped me deep so I could see
a greater type of humanity
Yet now I carry one deep pain
that I am a prisoner of this sight
For I can no longer live a life in vain
nor ignore the whole world's plight
I was happy once; ignorant and free
to be the joker and run away
Though it was never truly me
But sometimes I wish I could not see
