POV: Sokka misses Yue

A Wish

Whenever I look up at night,

I see the moon, I see your face.

I think then of what could have been,

memories of that time and place.

I see it now, as clear as day,

those thoughts of you will never fade.

I see you giving up your life,

I wish instead that you had stayed.

Why did you have to be so brave?

Was this how it was meant to be?

Was this supposed to hurt so bad

I wish that you were here with me.

There are many things I want to say,

so much that I want you to know.

How young and beautiful you were,

I wish you didn't have to go.

But if there's one thing I have learned,

as time continues by, is this:

No matter how much you may want,

a wish is just a wish.
