A Happy Place
I wish I were from a place where the streets weren't filled with fear.
Where the sounds of sirens don’t bleach the sky.
Where Earth was as He intended.
I wish I were from a place where being fit wasn’t impossible.
Where obesity wasn’t the majority.
Where It didn’t cost years to get physique.
I wish I were from a place where my skin didn’t crack outside.
Where Sleat didn’t feel like needles
Where my car started every morning without complications.
I wish I were from a wealthy family.
Where an 18 year old kid didn’t have to worry about financial decisions.
Where my college decision doesn’t depend on cost.
I wish I were from a healthy planet
Where bullets didn’t scour the air
Where we could be happy
