The Great Wish

The Great Wish

A Poem by Patrick O'Neil

I Wish?... I wish, I was someone else. Someone of fortune, fame, nobility. To have, things and diamond rings. I Wish?.. I wish that I, could do great things. Save the world or make it new. Do the stuff, that make the news. I Wish?.. I wish the world would stop! Telling me, who I am,..what I should be. Just let me live!..judgment free. I Wish?.. Night and day. All to fast, time slips away. In the end, just me, remain. This I Wish!.. The Greatest Wish? The only real, last wish! To know God's plan, the grand design, that I may see, Why, make me?

Author's Note

That longing we all have to know why we are here, when ones live seems insignificant by comparison.
