I wish

I wish my words had meaning

The ability to inspire

The minds of many

Provoke thoughts of plenty

Gaining new perspectives and ideas

Creativity racing through

Once closed ears

The second thoughts

And self evaluations we would have

Reminiscing upon days past

Bettering ourselves for the future to come

And loving one another

Despite our wrongs

I wish I were wise

Because I am not

Still so innocent and naive

Simply listening to feelings

That tell me when to leave

I look down upon no one

For we are all savage machines

I just wish to invoke a change

I'm sure we all wish to see..

Reviews

[Lizzie Mitchell]

oh my gosh this is so relatable
I have a piece I wrote about the a similar topic when I was around 13 or 14
needless to say it's not nearly as eloquent as this beauty and the idea was much less developed
but I think many of us who choose to write want our words to do some much more
creative souls see the problems with humanity and wish to solve them through creative medium

Oh wow thank you that's really high praise. But I want to read that poem.

[Lizzie Mitchell]

It's the one on my page called "Words"
The more recent one with a similar topic is "Sticks & Stones"
I think you'll appreciate both of them!

Oh I read 'Sticks & Stones' I really liked it. I could've sworn I left a review but then I've been pretty imaginative lately. I'm going to read it again along with 'Words' and make sure I leave a review this time.

[Lizzie Mitchell]

I actually thought you had too! But thanks for checking them out!
