Wishes.

Those damn wishes.
I hate them
but

at the same time,
I can't help but believe
in them.

Just a little, tiny bit.
I can't help

myself from wishing on that shooting star
or that dandelion
as I let my shaky breath
blow on it.

I can't help

believing and wishing on something,
anything

out there
that might change
what I think may be
fate.

so
no matter how much I tell myself
or try to trick myself
into not believing on a silly

wish
that has absolutely

no possibility
of
never.
Ever.

Coming true.

I still force myself to sit out here,
lonely and deep into the night

Only whispering softly to
the moon

that I still wish for you.
