Wish
I can wish and I can pray...
I can sit and waste away...
I can live in utter fantasy...
Blurring the lines of reality...
I can imagine my enormous wealth...
Everyone in wonderful health...
I'm not aging nor laying on a bed of regret...
I'm not afraid nor alone nor hiding from debt...
I'm never late to work because my car won't start...
I never prioritize my food from my grocery cart...
I never write about things that I fear,
And I love that image in the mirror...
