The Wisher

I wish I knew the words that I wanted to say.

I wish that everything would've just turned out okay.

I wish that you didn't hurt every single day.

I wish I knew how to say this a better way.

But words are fleeting like the ashes in their respective tray.

For that reason it feels like every word I speak is gray.

So what I ask is that you just try to stay.

For the story moves like the waters in the San Francisco Bay.
