Piles of Wishes
January 10, 2014
You can say to yourself
“I wish I were taller
I wish I were smarter
I wish I were more”
You can wish and
fulfill that wish
only to rethink yourself again
with another
doubt
and another wish.
You wish you were different
in one way or another
and you can keep wishing
until your life
is stuck in your dreams
but when will you just be satisfied
with the original,
beautiful
miraculous thing
that you already are?
