GIVING IN AND GIVING UP 

I wish I was an optimist

I wish I could release my fist

I wish I wouldn’t always look down

I wish I would learn not to frown

I wish I wouldn’t stress

I wish I wasn’t a mess

I wish I got a break

I wish I was by day awake

I wish I could sleep at night

I wish I had that right

I wish I cared less about it all

I wish I wasn’t subject to the fall

I wish I wouldn’t in every subject fail

I wish I didn’t see it all so pale

I wish I found it far less hard

I wish I had that ace of spades card

I wish I wasn’t always caught in worry

I wish I wasn’t always caught in hurry

I wish I could see my fault

I wish I would have trials halt

I wish I had more to love

I wish I could release my dove

I wish I could just give up.
