I Wish

I wish I could kiss
your beautiful face,

I wish that you weren't
in that special place.

I wish I could hug you
very, very tight,

I wish I could watch you sleeping
in your crib at night.



I wish I could see you
on your first day of school,

I wish I could watch you
splashing in the pool.

I wish I could see you
in a school show,

I wish I could play with you
outside in the snow.



I wish I could see you
in your Christmas dress,

I wish I could tell you
"Your room is a mess".

I wish I could take you
to an amusement park,

I wish I could hold you
when you're afraid of the dark.



I wish I could see you smile
when I walk in the room,

I wish you could be here
to see your flowers bloom.

I wish I could feel your
arms around my neck,

I wish that I wasn't
such a total wreck.



I wish I could hear your laugh
and hear your cry,

But I must go on without you,
I really, really try.

I wish I could hear you say,
"Mommy, I Love you",

So that I could tell you,
"Nicole, I Love you too."



I wish I could teach you
how to ride a bike,

I wish I could see
what type of boys you like.

I wish I could sing you
Happy Birthday,

I wish I could watch you
run around and play.



I wish you could've lived
a long and happy life,

I wish you could've grown up
to be someone's wife.

There are so many things
I wish that will never be,

But most of all

I wish you were

here

with Daddy and me.
