If I Could Have Wings

If I could have wings to fly,
Then I would fly away.
So long was my life full of pain
That I've no desire to stay.

If I could have fins to swim,
Then I would swim down deep,
Deep into the darkest depths
Where all my secrets it would keep.

If I could have a tail,
I'd swish it ever so slightly.
Skeptical would be my demeanor
Since I've been treated not too kindly.

If I could have wings,
Far from here I'd be found.
I want no part in misery
When what goes around comes around.
