You Wish

You wish I'd give in

You wish I'd give up.

You'd wish I'd stop fighting

For me and for us.

You wish I'd stop arguing

Stop pointing fingers

You wish I'd quit blaming

But my fire, it lingers.

Everlasting blaze

Inferno so wild

Welcome to my heart

Where nothing is mild.

Crazy reactions

Blown up like a storm

Reactivity and festivity

And happiness and scorn.

You wish I'd leave you alone

You wish I'd go away.

But how can you say

The things that you say?

I'll never stop fighting

I'll never give up.

You'll never win

You'll keep screwing up.

You wish you hadn't hurt me

Because of what I've done.

You wish you could scare me

Just for fun.

You wish me no pleasantries

You wish me no opportunities.

You wish I weren't so good at this

You wish, you wish, you wish.

    Wordless.

    Stage lights sparkling on my skin

    descending down steps for performers

    for the people before me

    people who take great joy in what we do.
