I wish

And wish some more

A wish is a hope given to the universe.

A little spark floating into the night sky.

A sparkle like a wink from a bright light as if the stars understand.

I wish it didn’t hurt.

I wish the feeling of being loved was big enough to drown out the rest.

I wish jobs that made a difference were valued as much monetarily as they are in gratitude.

I wish you weren’t so far away.

I wish being strong and self sufficient wasn’t also intimidating.

I wish for consistency in effort.

I wish you would just show up here one day, in a cheesy 80 movies way.

I wish people would take the time to listen.

I wish people gave me as much peace as music and nature.

More than anything, the biggest wish of all…

The one I give to the stars and search for a twinkle in return…

I wish I was enough.
