I wish life was the way it was meant to be I wish everyone had someone to love I wish everyone understood how to be nice and that it makes people fell nice when your nice I wish no one got laughed at for being differant I wish people were encouraged to be differant I wish you could walk on the streets of down town at night and not worry or be affraid I wish no one had to experiance fear I wish everyone cared about everyone I wish everyone could see what hurt they could cause before they cause it so they could realize what they were doing and stop I wish we lived in a world where it was ok to cry I wish we didn't have to cry I wish we could remember to laugh everyday I wish people said nice things simply to say nice things I wish people never had to experiance war or hate I wish people didn't gossip I wish no one cared what everyone else thought I wish everyone let everyone be themselves I wish everyone excepted everyone for who they wanted to be I wish everyone respected themselves I wish everyone had someone to tell them what was good about them instead of what was bad I wish no one had to have nightmares I wish no one took their own life or had a reason to I wish no one took anyone elses life I wish there was no such things as revenge I wish there was no reason for it I wish everyone could be nice to people, even if those people weren't so nice to them I wish everyone grew up with a loving family I wish parents didn't sometimes forget that they were parents I wish siblings were always companions I wish best freinds stayed best friends I wish relationships always worked out I wish enemies could find a way to become friends I wish no one had enemies I wish people always found their "soul mate" I wish first loves could be forever loves I wish simple conversations could brighten everyone's day I wish it really was the simple things I wish every kid could have a pet I wish everyone looked like what they were on the inside I wish everyone realized the consequence before the action I wish we could understand love BUT Maybe the misunderstanding is what makes it love Maybe existance isn't existing with out a struggle Maybe realtionships aren't relationships without the obstacles that must be overcome Maybe people aren't people without trials and tribulations Maybe humans aren't humans without misunderstanding and miscommunication Maybe good isn't good without bad Maybe life just isn't life without a little bit of living Maybe life isn't what it's suppose to be without the things we wish it wasn't |

This has to be the best poem I have ever read on here.I know a lot of people who spend their whole lifes wishing all those things but by wishing all that, they are missing out on a lot of good things.Because they live in fear and regret everything they do that doesn't turn out perfectly.So I totally understand this poem and keep up the great work!

You've done an incredible job with this. The longing you've expressed nearly brought tears to my eyes. You've also put this together so emotionally to express your meaning. The lines about soulmates and love were especially potent. You've really accomplished a lot in these few lines of poetry. "I wish first loves could be forever loves" ...that is beatiful and touching. Your realization/finalie with the maybes was a wonderful way to complete the poem. The only qualms i have are your spelling, which did distract me a bit, and i also have a suggestion...probably not worth considering, but i think it would make the poem more personal to say "i" instead of "everyone" or "no one"...it would have a greater impact, i think. Also, maybe forming more defined stanzas would give it greater flow or theme. Ehhh, i don't know. I can't compliment you enough on this. Definetly library material.

Holy Moly!!! *stands up clapping her hands off* Please bow and take these roses for you have written a masterpiece! These thoughts are so simple that you never actually realise until someone, like yourself, puts them into a poem for all to read. Totally amazing. Not only does it rock, it is going in my library. ~AF~ Just because I hear voices doesn't mean I'm crazy...SHUT UP IN THERE!!! |

That last line REALLY confused me, can you explain it? Anyhow, welcome to passions, I enjoyed this poem a lot. I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. |

the last line::: maybe life isn't what it's suppose to be with out the things we wish it wasn't:: it means that eve n though we hate going through hard time and difficult situations, life wouldn't really be life if we didn't have those things, because it's the good and bad things that make up life and stuff like that. Atleast that's what i think it means, u could interperet it however it seems best to u. |
