Wish I was the sunlight
Gently kissing your face
Full of fresh morning grace.
Wish I was the breeze
Touching you, hugging you,
Brushing past you.
Wish I was the water
Running over your body,
Quenching your thirst.
Wish I was the night
To whom you would surrender
Your weariness, your worries.
Wish I was the thought
That dwells on your mind,
That throbs in your heart.
Wish I was the reason
That made you smile
That made you say
“It's a beautiful life!”
But I'm just me.
A nobody.
