Broken Wishes

Broken Wishes

A Poem by Brandon Mathis

I wish that I could let myself burn bright
I wish that I wasn't breaking on the inside
I wish that I could be awake but not alive
I wish that I didn’t have to suffer the pain of every night
I wish that I could start a new life

I'll never get my wish until I can find my own way
I don’t want to get stuck in here only my memories will remain
When do you have to have to pay for the mistake that you made
I’m living with the demons that I created
the shadows of tomorrow are created from all of my pain
the waste of today is created of all my heart aches

With-out any wishes I start to feel so alone
with-out any wishes I start to lose my soul
with-out any wishes I start to realize that there’s no hope
with-out any wish’s I am left to this broken home

My heart starts to beat so fast that I can’t breathe
I feels like my heart's going to fall apart but I’m trying so hard
but this world only wants to bring me harm
so I create my own pain so that I can be dark
so break my heart and watch me start to bleed
it’s too much for me to take, so I begin to start to fall asleep
left with so much shame I’m stuck in this dream

So many broken wish’s that won’t come true
so many broken wish’s that I can’t use
these broken wish’s leave me so confused
left here wishing that I knew what to do
and I wish that I there was one wish I didn’t lose

These older pieces of yours are great! It read to me for some reason like a hard core rap xD The only thing I caught wrong was your spelling of wish's~wishes, unless of course you wanted it that way. ^_~

Again very well thought out. Great imagery and also I loved the reflective tone throughout this one. Another great poem!
