I wish I were happy <br />Then, when I am, I'm sad! <br /> <br />I wish I were different <br />Then, when I am, I’m boring! <br /> <br />I wish time was faster <br />Then when it is, it's too boring! <br /> <br />I wish I had more money <br />Then when I do, it's gone! <br /> <br />I wish I had more time to read <br />Then, when I do, what else is there to do? <br /> <br />I wish there was no school! <br />Then, when there is none, life is over! <br /> <br />I wish that I would miss you <br />Then, when I do, my heart is broken <br /> <br />I wish nothing ever changed! <br />Then, when nothing does, where am I going? <br /> <br />I wish that I looked better! <br />Then, when I do, who will know me? <br /> <br />I wish you were here <br />Now that you are, I'm not happy! <br /> <br />I wish I were happy...<br /><br />Shelby Lanier<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-wish-140/
