Wishes Poem by Carla Nestoros

I wish i was your first thought in the morning
Your last thought at night
I wish you stayed awake wondering
If i'm sleeping alright

I wish you stroked my hair and face
Because you cherish me so much
I wish you couldn't get through a day
Without my loving touch

I wish you would buy me pretty things
For no reason at all
I wish you could promise me, honestly
You'd catch me when i fall

I wish i was your whole world
And you couldn't breathe without me
I wish you didn't like skinny blondes
Who bare all on page three

I wish you didn't criticise
My make-up, clothes or hair
I wish you'd just believe i'm beautiful
No matter what i wear

I wish you'd promise me forever
But you know you won't until
You realised that if you don't do that
So many others will. x
