★ Click/Press Space or Scroll Down to Read! ★ One night I wished upon a shooting star Wishing for my soulmate to not feel so far I want more than lust, I want love to exist Kindness, compassion, you get the gist One night I wished upon a shooting star To believe when people tell me “you’re perfect as you are” I want to embrace the flaws I keep hidden within my soul And to keep these atrocious thoughts under my control One night I wished upon a shooting star For all the luxuries in the world, jewelry or a car To never have to starve, or plead for spare change Someone treated with admiration, instead of seeming strange Tonight though, I stopped wishing upon shooting stars, for I have all I need right here Instead of envying others’ goods, I live without a fear Because I have friends and family who love me to bits, and this may sound bizarre But if I have these people by my side, who needs a shooting star?
