SOMETIMES I WISH WISHES WERE HORSES

Hi Freewriters,

Hey, it's Abeegail again, how was your day. I'm here with another poem, hope you enjoy it.

Sometimes I wish I'd never met people, people are messy
Sometimes I wish I was the only one here,
I'd party with the sun all day and sing to the moon at night,
I'd call the stars pretty and I'm pretty sure the clouds would be fluffy,

Sometimes I'd wish I know how to love but loving someone comes from being loved, they say love yourself first,
But I don't even know who I am, how am I supposed to love me,
Sometimes I wish I was loved,
But I never know what to do with it, I've never been loved before,

Sometimes I wish I was strong, like Superman,
But I won't save the world, I just want to carry the burden off my mother, make her smile again,
Sometimes I wish I was Batman,
Not to right the injustice of the world, just to have enough money so my dad won't have to worry.

Sometimes I wish my voice was loud, I wonder what it would sound like,
When it has constantly been drowned out by the voices of others,
I wish my voice was loud, so that I could shout when someone has wronged me,
I've embraced this silence, like an oasis in a desert,
Sometimes I wish I could talk,
I try to but all I hear is the voice of others coming out my mouth,

Sometimes I wish people found me pretty,
Not the kind that comes with short, skin-fitted skirt,
Not the kind that only cares what my size is from my waist down,
The kind that makes people fall in love slowly,
The kind that catches people of guard and make them dedicated their soul to you.

Sometimes I wish I was happy,
Everyone has a smile on their face and there's laughters in the air,
But it feels like I was created without a sense of humor, without a smidget of happy juice,
I try to smile, like the others, but it feels like my face is frozen in this permanent state of gloom,
Sometimes I wish I was happy again.

Sometimes I wish I had more friends,
But I secretly think everyone hates me, so no one would want me right,
Just like a magician, I'll demonstrate a disappearing act, avoid anyone who show an ounce of care and embrace loneliness like my only friend.

Sometimes I wish I was rebellious and stubborn,
Stubborn about the things I want, the zeal to fight back when pushed to a corner,
But obedience is all I know,
I'll happily put the boot on my neck, even if it's the last breath I'll take.

Sometimes I wish I lived for myself,
Not making everything a performance, so I'd be seen,
Not making choices handed to me from other people's shelves,
But trying to be happy, even if it's against others will,
Sometimes I wish I had the guts to be my own person.

Sometimes I wish I was made of steel,
So things won't hurt as bad,
These emotions are much to strong for a teen to feel,
Sometimes I wish I was made of steel.

Sometimes I wish wishes were horses, but they're not.
Sometimes I wish.............................

It's Abeegail✨💗
