Wish

I sometimes wish
That stars align
When you will it to be
And not be ruled by reality.

I sometimes wish
That longing is but a dream
Like horoscopes ubiquitous
And never specific.

I sometimes wish
That truth would not be
So cruel like gruel
Minced, pounded as is.

I sometimes wish
That sleep will deprive
All thoughts and hopes
Of fate tamed like stars.

Weathering

Raindrops falling, seasonal tears
Gloomy clouds like every other end.
Dawn breaks yet sunrise beyond reach,
The storm rages on.
