A poem on wishes <br />~ <br />Be careful what you wish for <br />that's what began the chase <br />a hope held in a dream <br />of what could someday finally be <br />only life had other ideas <br />and threw up walls and fences <br />to break the spirit into surrender <br />or make it fight that bit harder <br />knowing what you live for <br />what joy awaits at the end <br />of the scene playing out <br />trials and tribulations <br />are sent to test us, our belief <br />do you stand steadfast <br />or wilt like a winter flower <br />be careful what you wish for <br />is it all you need<br /><br />Matthew Holloway<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-poem-on-wishes/
