Wishful Thinking

If wishes were fishes
the world would be a sea...
but what on God's earth
does that have to do with me?

Can't I think of you
without having to dream?
Aren't you a reality?
Or is that only as it seems?

I am confused
and don't know what to think.
If my world was made of water...
I believe that I would sink.

Surrounded by wishes
that are in fact fishes?
What would that say of me
if you were a wish in my fishy sea?

Would you be human
or would you be a fish?
If in fact
you are my own wish?

Would the term "wishful"
in fact be "fishful"?
and what about wishing?
could I be "fishing"?

This makes no sense
and so you see
wishes aren't fishes
and the world's not a sea.

So of course fishing
and wishing for you
has nothing to do with me.
