I wish we had happily ever after
That there was no need for getting up and going to a job
That what we held was suffice to feed our bellies
And pay the bills
The ones that strangle the oxygen out of our kisses
I wish we had time to just hold hands
And that nightfall didn’t close my eyes
That deprivation of sleep was replaced with the energy of our chemical combustion
I so wish in the fairy tale
That one day children would read about this love
And memorize the lines we spoke to each other
That statues were erected to honor us
And millions would begin a pilgrimage to it
I made a wish my dear…
