My Wish

My only wish right now
Is to look you in the eye
To say, my dear I care for you
'Cause it is NOT a lie

 

My only wish right now
Is to touch your bleeding scars
To make them go away
And to free you from your bars

 

My only wish right now 
Is to show you that you're loved 
By myself and other butterflies
And by my God above

 

My only wish right now
Is to show you can be free
From the chains that strangle you
That once entangled me

 

My only wish right now
Is to hold you in my arms
To stroke your pretty, dark brown hair 
And keep you safe from harm

 

My only wish right now
Is just to wipe away your tears
Strike away the hatred
Banish all your fears

 

My only wish right now 
Is to put a pretty smile
On that gentle face of yours
And keep it there a while

 

My only wish right now
Is to travel o'er the blue
To take my Sword and fight
The demons haunting you

 

I'm taking all my wishes
Sent to heaven glistening
With tears in form of broken prayers
I know God's listening
