make you laugh

by Gabrielle L Gervais

I wish i could make you laugh, make you smile.
I wish i could fill you up so that you are never hungry.
I wish i could love you a little. i wish that would be enough.
But a little doesn't do it for me, and i guess you can't get by on it either.
But i wish i could give you my smile. I wish i could give you myself.
I wish I was enough.
But my little match can't warm everyone- it doesn't even warm me.
Fuck-
i wish i was a blowtorch.

This certainly did make me smile and warm with the sentiment and laugh with the clever ending.
