I wish I was stronger, 

brave to face my fears.

I wish I was younger, 

unafraid to show my tears.

-

I wish I was older,

ready and mature.

I wish I was bolder,

not uncertain, but sure. 

-

I wish I wasn't so afraid

of things that might go wrong;

things that aren't perfect,

but that pushes me on,

pushes me to become

someone strong.
