I Wish That I Was Beautiful For You - Darren Hanlon

I wish that I was beautiful for you

I wish that I inspired tiny

Fireworks inside the way you do

So delicately made

A prayer left unprayed

Before the morning sky fades

Up to blue

And I wish that I was beautiful for you

I wish that somehow I could find a pill

For a quick fix modern tonic

That would change me with one swallow I would kill

Watch folks line up to pay

Stare at me all day

But I'd turn them all away

If that be thy will

One tiny little innocuous pill

But a wish is just a pin

In a swimming pool of needles

If for one night you need the room

I wish to be your tomb

You can lie in me

Is it possible I've other things you need

But to be worthy of a single page

Out of one of those magazines you read

As glossy as a mirror

But mirrors never lie

They're difficult on the eye

It's true

And I wish that I was beautiful for you

I dreamed that we were travelling on a bus

Speeding along an unnamed plain

Towards somewhere and nowhere there was us

Our hands lay useless in our laps

Like beetles on their backs

We came to a stretch of road where a fire

Had burned the edges all along

It looked as though the highway wore eyeliner

You kissed me by surprise

When I opened my eyes

You'd turned into some old guy

I screamed

But don't forget of all these things

I've only dreamed

If for one night you need the room

I will be your tomb

You can lie in me
