I wish inhaling you deeply
Was enough to keep you breathing.

I wish kissing you
Was enough to make you forget. In general. About everything.

I wish touching you
Was enough to heal all your wounds and make the scars fade and disappear altogether.

I wish embracing you
Was enough to hold you here forever.

I wish loving you
Was enough to make you stay.

I wish losing you
Wasn't this hard.
