A Silent Wish

"A Silent Wish" expresses the quiet longing of wanting to be remembered on a special day, like your birthday, capturing the feeling of being forgotten and the hope for recognition.

The day I wait for every year has finally come 

Longing for a “happy birthday” from those who I love 

Nevermind, don’t stress about me, it isn’t a crime 

I will just keep praying till I show up in your mind 

 

I will whisper to the wind a secret 

One no one will care about, not a single cricket 

A wish so faint, it fades through the air 

A fragile hope that vanishes, bare 

 

Regardless of every reminder 

Everyone seems to forget me in the winter 

And while they thrive in each game 

They forever fail to remember my name

Today (December 17th) is actually my birthday and that is what actually inspired me to write this poem! I hope you love it as much as I do!

I hope that you had a happy birthday. And, quite sad that you expressed a perception that some people seem to find it difficult; to remember that special day in your yearly calendar of life.

You mentioned a heartfelt longing, for people to wish you a "happy birthday"; just those two simple words. Not much to hope for, and you certainly should not have to ask.

Best wishes, and here is a late birthday cake🎂for you.
