Wishes Poem by maina nyagah

I wish i were a stone
with no eyes to see
what the heart will desire
no heart to admire
what the eyes will see
no lips to say
that my desired
what the eyes saw
Am I to decide? NO
I wish i were a stone
with no brains to decide.

i wish i were a stone
with no nerves to communicate pain
no tears to wet my pretty cheeks
should life dictate that i should cry
my heart would be mine
that i belong to myself
if only i were a stone
i wish i were a stone

i wish i were a stone
i wouldn't have felt you near me
your touch wouldn't have excited my heart
to confess my feelings to you
did i say feelings? NO
I wish i were a stone
i wouldn't have you, my LOVE...
