i wish

i wish for...
so many things...

for a beautiful face...
and many gold rings...

i wish i had talent...
i wish i had poise...

i wish i could dance...
i wish for less noise...

i wish that true love...
was never hard to find...

i wish that life...
was like the world in my mind...

i wish that chocolate...
wasn't the only thing comforting...

i wish that wishing...
really did something...

but the truth of the world
is the only real thing

the teasing and laughing
and no talent to sing

the tripping and falling
with no one to help you up

the thought that just a boyfriend
will be able to fill your cup

the eyeshadow and blush
being always in a rush

the chocolate that you eat every day
to allow your loneliness a place to stay

the loudness of life that just seems
to get louder and louder

the wishing and hoping that only turn
into lies and slander

you stop to wish just one more time
but you know an end must come to this rhyme

the rhyme of life that seems to just spin
in a fog of slowly dying to pay for your sin

so don't waste your life only on wishing
go out into the world and make yourself something

    wooow. that was awsome! it was soo good. i do find myself wishing for these types of things. i wish for world hunger to stop, for wars to end, for equality but in every way possible i try to help. i may not be able to change the world, but i have changed myself and i guess thats a start, right? once again great job! i like when you said i wish for world was like the one in my head. i love that line. also, thanks for commenting on my work!
