Wish Poem by Jessica Robert

Closing my eyes
My breathe held
My fingers cross
And I begin my wish.

Time begins to fade me by
The seconds ticking down
I exhale deeply
And my hope flies with the wind

Fingers uncross
Eyes opening, slowly
Sweet serenity surronds me
As I pray my wish comes true

Can't you see?
The world only holds so much for me
One soul, one life, one love
So why hold out?
I am falling
And I want your arms to catch me.
