I Wished... Poem by Nestor David Armas

I wished to have never met you;

So that I would never say goodbye,

I wished to never have held you;

So that I would never have to let go,

I wished to have never laughed with you;

So that I would never cry,

I wished for so little;

So that I would never have too much,

But I met you on that blessed; cursed day;

And now I've said goodbye,

I held you in my arms;

And now I've let you go,

I laughed many a time with you;

And now I cry at every memory,

I wished for so much;

But I had so little and now you're gone...
