I wish I had known

How hard life would be.


I wish I had known

How many people would betray me.



I wish I had known

Who would leave me

So I could leave them first

And not feel that sting of abandonment. 


I wish I had known

When I would find my love

So I wouldn't have wasted it on others.


I wish I had known

When I would discover the magic

That I could bask in it

Because eventually is goes,

And it goes too quickly. 


I wish I had known

What the world would have in store for me.


I wish I had known

Of the mistakes I would make

So that I would stop myself from making them.


I wish I had known 

That wishes don't come true.
