The Wish That Could Give Back
If I got one wish
I would never know what to do with it
My brain is a rolling sea of possibilities
And I don't think I could ever live by only choosing one
But if I could only pick one wish
It would be that my friends live their dream lives
and would those lives most likely leave Me out of the picture?
Probably.
But my friends are my whole world,
Not my family, just my friends
Because when it comes to my family,
the only thing we share is blood
Because my family has stabbed me in the back
But I know that if I got my wish,
And if my friends all moved on,
At least my friends, my Chosen Family
Would at least let me down slowly
But my Chosen Family means more than my real one ever will
Because my Chosen Family:
They are my Rock,
My Life Preserver
My Anchor
My Everything
They taught me who God is
And helped me learn who I am
They have loved me and guided me the whole way
My Chosen Family are the only reason I haven't run yet
Although they won't ever know it
They won't ever know how much they mean to me,
And I hope that if my wish was granted
It could show them how far they have brought me
By me bringing them the same distance
