I Wish

I wish that I could see the bright side
Of all the dark and gloomy days
So I could chase away the storm clouds
And no longer be afraid

I wish that I could scale the mountains
That they said I'd never climb
So I could prove them wrong for once
And think that maybe I'm alright

I wish that I could reach the heavens
And capture starlight in a jar
So I could light the world around me
And have a chance to flee the dark

I wish that I could stand up tall
And conquer all my fear and doubt
For once believing that I'm worth it
Instead of pushing myself out

I wish that I could love myself
As much as some have said I ought
Instead of hiding in the shadows
I'd become what I am not

Your words are so intense that it pierces a part of us that relates to your work and who you are. I love that it relates to who we all are.

This is a good poem. I really like it. Thanks for sharing. :)

A healthy self concept….
Is very important….
For a successful living…
It seems the person you are referring to…
Is going through the formation of it….
The poem proves the psychological theory..
That self concept is very much connected to what others think of one self…
Loved the poem soooooooo……much…

Beautiful, emotional, deep...This piece is amazing. Not only are all the technical elements perfect, but the emotional touch of it pushes it above and beyond. Great job with this, it's probably my favorite from you. :)
