poetry ❋

❥ 𝒔𝒊𝒙. where have all my wishes gone?

Wishing I was someone else,

Wishing for a life with more purpose,

Wishing not to be here,

So many wishes I've lost count,

Wish after wish after wish,

They say to wish on a shooting star but they all just fly past and plummet down to infinity,

Taking your hopes and dreams with them,

Maybe in a different universe the stars don't betray us,

Leaving us wretched and despondent,

Floating in space with the graveyards of lost stars, carrying the burden of dead wishes and dreams.
