![]() Wish Upon a StarA Poem by Colorless![]() ...![]() I wish to live in a world where security is guaranteed Where no one has to get hurt nor get sick Where there are no wars Where there is no need to fear for life I wish to see couples who are truly in love Madly deeply staring at each others' eyes With love, lust, and desire Happily contented with one another For trust is built and barriers are broken I wish to quench the world with its hunger and thirst The kids in Africa… The guy you see everytime in the streets Who happens to be left by everyone He loves and cherish Yet still manages to hold a smile In this forsaken world I want a perfect body By perfect I do mean it is with flaws Because flaws are important I just don't want cancer Or anything that would keep me down I wish to rid the world of illness and accidents No one has to die because of system malfunctions No one has to suffer for no reason A father who is willing to give everything to his family Love, attention, his health… A man who only wants to settle down and finally be happy Yet is plagued by a debilitating condition That slowly eats him down As well as his whole family Not to mention fear and worry only worsens His poor ill heart Which only decreases the chance of him finding a new job He is old and nearing retirement now He was set-up and fired He couldn't do anything though For he sees himself as small and worthless… Why do good people have to suffer? I have no qualms if the evil are to be tortured Slow and painful agony Their hostility brings fear to the hearts of many The fear their husbands feel When they are awaiting their wife late at night Or the unsuspecting child with a nearing van Oh how I wish!... But you see dreamers can only dream And wishers are to waste their breath Dreams are dead and so will be the theft's next victim And I can do nothing really But to slowly descend in silence And weep about my existence Because stars are already dead when we see them © 2015 ColorlessAuthor's Note
