Wishes
We often have wishes for things beyond reach.
Is this an implant in us?
How is it that one has wishes?
We are given what is needed to survive,
and yet more is wanting.
How does this come about?
If you are complete then wishes are extra.
Some are good and some are not.
But no matter for we can keep or discard them at will.
Just a test to know what one really needs.
Basics are fine, but you need an extra to make you move forward.
Wishes are good in that they make one whole.
Even if no good comes of them.
You follow the ones that lead to the better path.
Wishes - God made, to make you on top.
Wishes - God made not to make you stop.
Go on with your wishes as you grow.
It will become apparent that you are here and complete.
