Wished For Poems | Examples


Nuclear War Wished For

A nuclear war wished for

There is among the youth of the West an ingrained boredom
a hidden wish to swipe away from the old world they live in 
they can’t see for mist on windows and need to clear the view
the dream of an exploding world where they will be survivors.
If a few survive. they will soon wish they hadn’t the destruction
will be complete, save from cockroaches and perhaps
a few ulcerated dogs will die of starvation.  
As for the rich, in their bunkers, will turn against one another
eat their children and finally open the door to an empty world
Their scream for mercy to an absent god will echo forever.

Always Wished For You

Always wished for you
That wish finally came true
I thank God for you

Not What I Wished For

You're not what I wanted yesterday, 
but a lot can change in a day 
Any contact with you changes my mood drastic, 
good or bad depending on what you say
This isn't at all what I expected love to be like 
When I was a child it all seemed like magic 
but this just seems like a nightmare
 I willingly keep replaying 
Maybe though this is just what it's like 
And the child in me is overreacting 
I need to grow up and be miserable 
Just like everybody else around me

What I Wished For

The sky is blue 
every one knows this to be true
but my love for you
is more than saying I DO


these are the words he said to me
covering is actions and intentions like covered tea
acting as the man i wanted him to be 
painting the picture i always wanted to see


the tears in my eyes are beyond full
making me regret i was ever faithful  
breaking my heart and pride 
but has left my eyes opened wide


all i feel is nothing but pain
with nothing to gain 
would i ever again fell the same 
with the way he made my heart a game 
living me to sink in the sea of shame 


i try to think of forgiveness 
but all that comes to my heart are the words of revenge 
yet my spirit can't stand such wickedness
making another person pass through such twinge

Not Exactly What I Wished For

Been stomping around
Asking for a cure
A relief to stop the pain
Here it is now

My options in a list
Which surgeries to pick?
Yeah life could be worse,
But I am only 19

Not ready to give up my life
Maybe suffering is easier
I don't really know
I guess I've adapted to this pain

I've known they don't understand
It's been just me
Til he came along
And now what?

It'll ruin his life too

Should I take it back?
No I don't want a cure
I don't want these options
I want to suffer

What will do me good
In this world of confusion


My Wished For Valentine

Cupid, the angel of love,
Being sent from above
Came and found me,
Praying on bended knee
Then, aiming his bow,
He shot one arrow
And when I was struck,
It was more than luck
For I knew then you'd be mine,
My wished for Valentine

Everything I Wished For

You are everything I wished for,
I couldn’t ask for more,
You are so good to me,
and in return you will always have my loyalty,
I love how you can always make me smile,
its makes me want to stay for a while,
You give me unconditional love and honesty,

In my eyes you will always be handsome and strong,
no matter what people may say,
I know your love for me is pure and true,
You are my one and only,
I have a strong desire to be with you and only you,
I appreciate everything you do,
You’re love will never leave me feeling lonly,

You are the most amazing guy I have ever met,
and better yet,
I love the way you say "I love you" with out speaking,
I wouldn’t dare ask for anything more if i were givin the chance,
You are everything i wished for, 
and much more.

My Dream I Prayed Hoped and Wished For

From the minute i was born,
I prayed, hoped and wished to be daddy's little girl,
As i grew up i started to realise,
That everything i prayed, hoped and wished for weren't going to come true,

I had faith in that person,
I called Dad to change and start realising,
What his little girl wished for,

But it never happened,
Not event o this day,
I'm 14 yrs old,

I have given up on praying, hoping and wishing,
And i know in my heart,
I can't give that man a second chance,
I wanted to be Daddy's little girl for so long,
But it's too late now................

I know deep down this will never happen.

You Are Everything I Wished For

You are everything I wished for,

You give me unconditional love and honesty,

In my eyes you will always be handsome and strong,
no matter what people may say,
I know your love for me is pure and true,
You are my one and only,
I have a strong desire to be with you and only you,
I appreciate everything you do,
You’re love will never leave me feeling lonly,

You are the most amazing guy I have ever met,
and better yet,
I love the way you say "I love you" with out speaking,
I wouldn’t dare ask for anything more if i were givin the chance,
You are everything i wished for, 
and much more.

Everything I'Ve Wished For

You could give me flowers, gifts, a brand new car
You could take me to movies, dinner, even a dance
But no matter what you could offer me
You’ll never give me anything greater
Than what you have already given me
You’ve given me a chance to see
What it means to truly in love
You’ve shown me more than I could ever imagine
You’ve given me everything I’ve wished for
On that special day when you told me, “I love you”
