Wasted Wish

Tears well for what could have been,
No do-over or take-backs,
You made your present with decisions of the past
Thought you could hold fast,
But in the end you’re hopeless,
Cast adrift and losing focus
Damn those decisions of the past
Lost in the in-between,
Trying to make sense of miscalculations and artificial conversations
Don’t fence me in
Brick me in, but don’t let me see through the gate
Through the little squares, I see what I could never have
You were my wish,
My one wish
I wasted it on you
Like a fish swimming up river, I try, try again
God, why didn’t you make me a quitter?
I will always be that fish, with a wasted wish, swimming up river
But in the end
I made my present with decisions of the past
Thought I could hold fast,
But in the end
I’m hopeless,
Cast adrift and losing focus
Damn those decisions of the past
