Horse

oh i wish i had a horse

and that your name was my name



oh i wish i had brown braids

and a white convertible like you did in the sixties



oh i wish i had a gray sailor dress

and that your name girl was my name



oh i wish i was makeup free and fourteen

like you in your school picture from the eighties



oh i wish i had a rush concert t shirt

and that your name was my name



oh i wish i had a college semester

and a low maintenance haircut like you did in the nineties



i want to be by your side

i want to see through your eyes

but i’m me
