I Wish


I expect you to fail

I expect you to forget about me

But one day

I wish you would remember me

I wish you will realize that I'm still here

I wish you would love me the way you

Love yourself 

 

I expect you to visit me when I'm sick

I expect you to care for me when I can't 

Care for myself

 

One day I wish you won't look at me as a burden

I wish you would encourage me when

I'm feeling down

I wish you would pick me up when I fall

 

Maybe I expect too much

Maybe I should just accept what you 

Have to offer 

And wish for the best
