i wish i was a little girl <br />still tripping on my laces <br />or sprawled across the floor with crayons <br />coloring silly faces. <br />i wish i was still small enough <br />to sit on daddy's knee <br />or up on his shoulder <br />when i was too short to see. <br />i wish i still cried <br />over things like broken toys <br />instead of broken hearts <br />over things like stupid boys. <br />i wish it still felt <br />like the summer had no end <br />instead of flying past <br />before i even know what happend. <br />i wish my purple sock <br />still matched perfect with my red <br />and i still wore pink footsie pajamas <br />everynight to bed. <br />but wishing wont bring back <br />the things that i had <br />so i'll take the sweet with the sour <br />and the good with the bad. <br />and i'll look for the rainbows <br />that mark the storms end <br />and go diving into puddles <br />with you, my special friend. <br /><3<br /><br />Jessica Lindsey<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/wishful-thinking-silly-nonsense/
