I Wish I Could

Dear angry parent,

 I can't part the rolling tides of the ocean.
                             I wish I could.
I can't hang the moon slightly more to the left.
                                I wish I could.
I can't tell the sun to chill out.
                                I wish I could.
I can't give each star that shines a name.
                                I wish I could.
I can't find the end of a rainbow
                               I wish I could.
I can't make the wind speak each time it blows.
                                I wish I could.
I can't spin planet earth on my finger tips to pass the time, when time gets tough.
                                  I wish I could
I can't make the rain wash your sorrows away.
                                 I wish I could.
I can't drive into the sunset.. literally.
                                 I wish I could.
I can't find the cow that jumped over the moon.
                                I wish I could.
I can't see through rose colored glasses.
                               I wish I could
I can't make the sound of silence .. be silent.
                               I wish I could.
I can't help not to giggle when you lie so bad you start to shake.
                              I wish I could.
I can teach and I can love.
But I can't change the world.

                                I wish I could.


The truth and a cupcake will set you free :)
