I wish I could call you mine

I wish I could call you mine, To hold you close and make you shine. To be the one who's by your side, Through life's ups and downs, to be your guide. I wish I could whisper in your ear, Sweet nothings that would banish fear. To be the safe haven where you hide, And in your eyes, my heart reside. I wish I could take your hand, And walk with you through life's grand plan. To explore the world, wild and free, Together, just you and me. I wish I could call you mine, To love you fully, heart and mind. But fate may have other plans, And our love may be in distant lands. Still, I'll hold on to the thought, Of what could be, of what's been brought. For in my dreams, you're mine to keep, Forever in my heart, my love to reap. ~Maflu
