Come What May

Wishes are just child's play, 

don't wish for things, you'll see... 

‘cause guess what, they are just dreams,

and dreams are sublime, magic and time, but

wishes ARE just child's play,

come what may.

We found out didn't we,

as we dreamt our lives away,

where did the time go?

So fast. What have we got to show?

Hopes and dreams.

Wishes are just child’s play,

come what may.

Aspirational

The ‘lesser’ are

discriminated against 

throughout their lives

by most of us, when you look at it,

closely.

The ‘greater’ 

get everything they want,

and more,

and it is never questioned.

It is celebrated.

We all hope we might catch it.

Island

You can never live your life alone,

find your tribe,

never let them go.

Glint

"There was so much that I didn't do."

My gravestone will glint in the sun

with that message, I am afraid, 

if grave stones can glint in the sun at all,

- the only time my life will shine in the light -

speaking to eternity of my failings.
