I wish my eyes were bigger
I wish my cheeks were smaller 
I wish I was 15 pounds skinnier
I wish I was 2 inches taller

I wish I had gone forward
I wish I had tried harder
I wish I had cared more
I wish I had been smarter

I wish I wasn't so scared
I wish I wasn't so strange
I wish I wasn't so fake
I wish I wasn't so out of place

I wish I could sing
I wish I could run
I wish I could believe
I wish I could love
 
I wish I was kinder
I wish I was bolder
I wish I was stronger
I wish I was older

I know that I am lucky
I know everything has flaws
I know I should be grateful
I know I can't have it all

I give many thanks for the goodness each day brings
But ultimately I wish
I didn't want to wish for any of these things
