                                                                               Wish

 


                                                  Wish someone could tell them it will be alright, 

                                           Wish someone could tell them to start chasing the light.

                                                       Don’t get trapped in my own mind,

                                                     Or else you will lose your soul to time.


                                         Wish someone could tell them to not just chase their high.

                                                     

                              Wish someone could tell them to ask themselves= Are you living a lie or not?


                          When you do come awake you will be so distraught.                                        

                         The only thing my heart gives you:be inspired

                                  Wish for you to not be tired, to be a free bird

                       Wish for you to rise higher, to not just be one in the herd.

 

                                     Wish you could wake up, because your people need you

                                                     They will surely falter without you

                                                 Who would support them? Who knows

                                     They need your fire, your flame. make sure it doesn't expire.

                                      

                                                            But it starts as a wish.

                                           Just like a man casting a rod. A single splash

                                                       A wish hoping to catch a fish.

           

                                              Do not be distracted, sounds easy enough.

                                                  Until you realize how many things,

                                                                Can distract you.

                                               So many screens, all you can hear is static

                                                                      So little, 

                                                                        Time.
