Wishes
You want power without control.
You want to be heard but you refuse to speak .
You want to be seen but you hide in the shadows.
You want freedom but you got comfortable in the cage you created .
You don’t want pity but you go around telling sob stories .
You want to love but the world has only taught you how to hate .
You want to be successful but self doubt has you by the neck .
You want to cry but you have been made to believe that it shows weakness.
You want to die but you have never really lived .
