Wishing Well

I walk past a wishing well, and cant help but stop,

I reach down and pluck a petal, dropping it back in.

I sit on the edge, looking down at all the past wishes.

What do I wish for?

I wish to find myself along the way of a long journey.

I wish I could loose myself all day, never stop and turn around.

I wish to walk down a road late a night, listening to nothing.

I wish to fall down this well, to feel what it feels like to be lost.

I wish to walk alone, but never feel alone at all.

I wish to go home, to smell the sweet smell of my past life.

I wish to travel to the unreachable places, and not back again.

I wish to wander so far that I find myself in a place of no return.

I wish in this little wishing well, wishing my heart away down this dreary dark well.

I cant help but wish.

I wish. I wish. I wish.
