I want by Ann Wood
"I want to have the courage to say 'enough.'I wish I could forget those who forgot me.
I wish I could learn to open windows when doors close.
I wish I didn't resign myself, that I didn't feel guilty, that I didn't shut myself in.
I wish I had the courage to love myself.
I wish you laughter and smiles, madness and magic, mistakes from which to learn.
I wish a strong wind to carry me,
a gleam in my eyes, a color to adorn my gray days, and rain to soothe me.
I wish I "miss you" and hugs that last a lifetime if I close my eyes.
I wish you travels and the accumulation of new memories. I wish myself hurricanes of feelings. I wish they loved me without obsessing over me.
I wish you a new favorite song and a new happy date.
I wish you kisses, toasts.
I wish myself a thirst to achieve and to continue.
I wish it to myself ... "
