I wish i didn't care <br />Wish that i could go somewhere <br />Without i see, or feel you there. <br />One song that didn't squeeze my heart <br />One scene in which you played no part. <br />Not echoes where i hear your name <br />Cutting my soul with naked flame. <br /> <br />I wish i didn't care <br />And not shed a tear after one long year. <br />Hear you whispering in my ear <br />And those cards that will always appear <br />With wordy prose and kiss sincere <br />Now lie with dust within a drawer <br />Stolen dreams that i will view no more. <br /> <br />Yes, i wish i didn't care <br />To lay at dawn with lady fair <br />And forget how soft i felt your hair <br />Brush my face <br />Like our promises chased <br />Stolen by the breeze and never traced. <br />Oh, i wish that i didn't care <br />That our souls touched as we became one <br />Love's tapestry in heaven spun <br />In golden meadow we would run. <br />- Like our film, now in my head <br />As i stargaze lying in my bed <br />Your eyes still burn as bright somewhere <br />Oh God, i wish i didn't care.<br /><br />Kevin East<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/wish-120/
