The Wishing Well As I drop my penny, Into your depths, I look back at my life, And then regret, I think about the past, How it used to be, I think about old times, And how I have come to be me, I think about old wishes, Old hopes and Old dreams, And now realize, That nothing is as it seams, And now I reminisce, About old friendships, And old days, I remember what they'd said to me, How they'd be there always, But now I come here, the wishing well, To make a wish and find a way, A way back, A way home, A way out of this place, As my penny hits the water, So does a tear, Not a tear of sadness, But a tear of great fear, I look up and realize That no wish can fix whats done, I have no hope, no dreams, There will be no more fun, But nevertheless, I make a wish, A wish oh so true, One from the hear, No for me, but for you I wish you'll have the courage, The strength to go on, The hope to succeed, While I sing my sad song, bye Bronx Be careful! It's a jungle out there! |

One of the hardest things a person can do is wish happiness for someone who is no longer a part of their lives. But that is also a sign of truest love. Bless you, Bronx. michael |

This poem hits home hard...The whole poem perfectly describes how I've felt lately. I think about the past, How it used to be, I think about old times, And how I have come to be me, I love that line...I've been thinking about my past and how much I miss it, b4 I moved here and how much I've changed....I miss it alot, but I guess, I finally came 2 reality and realized...it's just a memory now.  Well, I'll shut up now b/c no one really cares.  Great poem Bronx!"It takes a minute to have a crush on someone, an hour to like someone and a day to love someone- but it takes a lifetime to forget someone." |

That was great. Wishing for someone else is always so much braver than wishing for yourself... "Dreams are not a reality, no matter how much we wish"-TanAngel |

Good to see you're back, Bronx. I make a wish on a star every night...too bad they're all broken... ~goddess of love, passion, and desire~ I'll be here...why? I'll be waiting...for what? 'll be waiting for you so...if you come here, you'll find me... I promise. |
