If fishes were wishes.

in #poem6 years ago

When you raise your hands to the sky.
Asking lord, oh please no, why?
Why must I pay this terrible cost.
All my boys are lost.

Peter pan won't save the day.
Nor his fairy, with whom you'd lay.
Begging your fellows, didn't change none.
So that hand reaches grasping for invisible gun.

The only way to change your fate.
Is to take action, push open the gate.
Take first steps and follow through.
You may as well be stuck in glue.

Begging the never for a favor.
When you have no capital.
Seems a trite concerted my child.
Spin another yarn for us all.
Turn wishes into fishes, or was it the other way around.
