lips, hips, and wishes

i wish i could fix everything. i wish that my actions would align with my words when i say, 'i love you,' to someone. i wish i could make the hurt go away from the people i love. i wish that i could just snap my fingers and they would understand that i love them, and that Christ loves them more than anyone ever could. i wish i could show that people hurt everywhere around the world and that they are not alone. i wish i could say something to someone and they wouldn't ignore me just because i am me. i wish i could send a messenger to tell them something that would make them see as they were supposed to. i wish my love didn't depend on someone's lack of love for me. i wish i could understand everyone's love and hurt. i wish i just instinctively knew what to do for everyone. i wish the hate i show others would be aimed at myself and the same for others, so that we all could see how to "love others as ourselves."

"keep wishing and see how full your hands get."

wishing doesn't do anything, so maybe i'll pray.

i'm sorry i couldn't help you when i was supposed to.


shalom.
