Once upon a time I used to be young

I wish

Once upon a time I used to be young

Sometimes I feel cursed

I can’t help it I try and nothing comes out it

It’s starting to seem like nothing good ever happens to me

I’m tired

I remember when I was a child

I used to feel like everything was possible

I wished on stars

I thought that if you tried your best to do the right thing

That would be enough

I thought that if you wanted something bad enough

It will happen for sure

I’m so stupid

Dreams are meant for sleeping

Wishing on stars is a folktale for children

To help them believe that anything is possible

Like Father Christmas and the tooth fairy

But adults we know the truth

Life sucks

And then you die
