a midnite wish

by shelby-lynn-1

i was walking all alone in the dark and around about midnight on the mark i saw a big flash and looked up ahead. a star was shot by in the deep blackest bed. i thought to myself, what can i wish? what do i want? what to accomplish? i had no idea, no desires in mind. so i wished for happiness for me to find. not long after, i got to thinking... how far in this life i must have come. from when i was child chewing my gum, i wished for a horse from dad and mum. and when i was teen, so young and in love, i wished to be together forever and never apart, til death do us part in the stars up above did it come true? ...is the white dove blue? i should have known that two and half years and far too many tears were only a loan. i then wished for us together or apart, that we should find joy deep in our hearts. today. now. tonight. a few minutes ago. a new man, a new light. a new world that i know. i see, i have everything i need. i want for nothing. not a horse or steed. not forever, indeed. i wished for happiness. even though, it already has me in its grasp. and that, was my midnite wish. (but i can't tell you because it won't come true)
