I wish—
I wish I would not always find fault in everyone I so much as gaze upon.
I wish I could hold onto my emotions for longer than a few fleeting seconds before they fade into nothingness.
I wish I were not so smart,
for perhaps then I could blend into the conformity of society.
I wish…
I wish…
I wish…
But alas, that is all they are.
For if wishes were horses, then beggars would ride.
And though I am no beggar,
I too would love to ride across that lush green expanse where I reign as queen over all I desire.
