But I sure do

I know it’s childish
and I don’t believe it
but I sure do wish it

my most hoped for
prayer

not possible
probably

but hoped for
felt deep

like all the human
cells
and all the microorganisms
which are my greater
part
are feeling
and hoping
for this foolish
wish
to be true

like we’re all
on the same
wave

I can imagine it

dream it

. . .

I die

and there
they all are

everyone
I most want to
see

each one knowing
how much I
love them

and I’m there
with them

and there is no
end

I know it’s childish
and I don’t believe it
but I sure do wish it
