I wish to experience summer here
so that I’d feel the kiss of winter’s cold
I wish for negligible senescence
so that this love I have will not grow old
I wish I was able to discover
the cure for every illness there ever is
I wish to know before life is over
what true happiness actually means
I wish that someday I’d tell my own child
my love for him is unconditional
I wish to always make my daughter smile
Even when I can’t save her from the world
I wish for impossible things, I know
But without these wishes, where would dreams go?
Lovely.
And ten points for the use of "senescence", which Vocabulary Jane over here had to go look up. ;)

Yay! Thanks. I watched a documentary about negligible senescence on Animal Planet some months ago, and I've been playing with the concept for a story. Which may or may not come to pass.
