WHAT WENT WRONG.


Yearning to become someone better, That is one wish all children make. But what happens? When some wishes Turn into ashes; Without even trying. Then all get lost. How mysterious when hopes Turn into silly jokes, When faith fades away and There's no other last time, For you to settle what went wrong.
