I wish someone cared for me
Like the rain cares for the thirsty tree—
Soft, steady, always there,
Feeling the weight I often bear.
I wish someone would love me, too,
Like the sun loves the morning dew—
Gentle, warm, with endless grace,
To see the storm behind my face.
I long for someone who feels the breeze,
When my words tremble, seeking release,
To hear the quiet in my tone,
And know I’m drifting, all alone.
I wish I didn’t have to be the one
To apologize when the day is done—
Like the wind that whispers through the night,
I hold my silence, though it’s not right.
I wish someone would hold me tight,
Like a cloud embraces the fading light,
To calm the thunder deep inside,
And let me rest, my heart to hide.
I long for someone who’d check on me,
As the stars check on the endless sea—
To know when my sky has turned to gray,
And pull me from the shadows, to stay.
I wish for a love that pours like rain,
To wash away the quiet pain—
To touch me like a gentle breeze,
And whisper softly, You are at ease.
I wish for someone to see my heart,
Like a storm before it falls apart—
To feel the winds I cannot show,
And help me calm the tides below.
I wish, I wish, for hands that know
When the air is cold, and hearts are low—
Someone to love me, just like I care,
And hold me close when the world is bare.
