You ask me, What is my wish?

You ask me
What is your wish, babygirl?
My wish
Is that you would raise me
To see that people are never what they seem
Masks hide
Scars from hardcore fights
My wish
Is that you would raise me
To use my hands
For good not evil
Because idle hands
Are the devils’ play things
My wish
Is that you would raise me
To see the world
From the perspective of god
To love everyone
Not their actions
But their souls

You ask me
What is your wish, little girl?
My wish
Is that I will learn
That actions speak louder than words
That fists pounding
Are not pretty sounds
My wish
Is that I will learn
That being the outcast
Is never a bad thing
Because eventually
Every angel gets their wings
My wish
Is that I will learn
To express my emotions
Not suppress them
Less I be oppressed
By the devil

You ask me
What is your wish, young lady?
My wish
Is that I will
Speak up and
Stand up
For things I believe in
My wish
Is that I will
State my opinions
About the state
So many live in
The state
Of self hatred
My wish
Is that I will
Accept that some people
Will never accept me
And that those people don’t matter
My wish
Is that I will
Be my own person
Stop other people
From hurting their selves
And getting those people
Some help

You ask me
What is my wish?
My wish is that you
Will have your own wishes
And save your kisses
For someone that will appreciate them
My wish is that you
Will be your own person
But above all
My wish
Is that you will love yourself
