I wish

I wish that one day i'll be
a person like my mother
someone that will cook me tea
or kiss and hug my brother

But then i wish that i could be
somewhat like my father
strong and tough and free
and always throws the ball farther

And then i want to try and be
just like my older brother
Never offenced, or even see
an offence comment from another

Just after that i want to be
some nice and smiley
because all i want to be is me
and i think of me highly
