I wish upon the burning candle; I pray for this to be my last - another year of despondency I cannot handle. I wish arduously for nothing but my quietus as I blow out the ember, and everybody claps without a second thought about what my wish could render.

Birthday Wish
I wish upon the burning candle; I pray for this to be my last - another year of despondency I cannot handle. I wish arduously for nothing but my quietus as I blow out the ember, and everybody claps without a second thought about what my wish could render.
