I wish I was sick.
I always have;
and probably always will.
I want people to look at me with pity in their eyes,
I need that attention, even for just a second.
I used to wish,
always upon a bright star;
that I'd break my leg,
fall down some stairs,
break my arms,
or just be sick,
so people would give me attention.
I've always been sick though,
healthy people don't wish to be sick.
