I wish..


I'll spark the match that lights the cigarette I'll take my chances and live what I get I'm tired of fighting for things I love so much I miss the light gentle touch I'll inhale all the chemicals I'll let my mind see something mystical My mind will paint a life I wish I had One were every moment I feel glad I long to escape this life of pain and hurt I'll wish to live somewhere else but the desert I'll wish for a love so deep and meaningful Something so real its frightful I'll wish to fly high above I'll wish to have meanings like the white dove I'll wish to have so much meaning That I'll create a powerful steaming I'll cleanse the earth and make it livable Till then tho..I'll sit here and pretend everything is lovable I wish life was easier to bare Sadly that's the power of wishing because life's never fair Love is something so individually uncommon Happiness is something wished for common I wish the world wasn't so cruel I know that no matter what I'll always be the fool

I am out going. I draw, write and love to help out our veterans. In my future I want to do something in the medical field.
