Better


I wish people would shut up.  

I wish people cared.

I wish the world would stop;

 Just sit and stare.

I wish I was as great as some are good.

I wish good was better than great.  

  Good is better than great.  

I wish I was a teacher.  

I wish I was better at Spanish.

I wish I was better than this.
