My wishes

I want to live, I want to love,

I want to value someone,

I want to be just brave enough

to tell you how much I love you.

-

I want to value all my friends,

to give them love and joy,

I want to visit merry lands

where no one is annoyed.

I want to live, I want to fly,

in all to be the best,

and may be one day go as high

as to the alluring Everest.

I want to have a magic wish

and always to be young,

I want to catch a goldfish

and learn her mother-tongue.

I want to ask it for the wings

and never let me cry,

and to avoid all crappy things,

to love until I die.

I want to know victories,

don't want to know troubles,

don't want to know miseries,

to live with no double.

I want to live and be myself,

to learn another culture,

to meet one day with kind elf

and sing the songs of nature.

Those are my wishes told above

but the main one is certainly love.

I'll try to manage with them all

without anyone's control.
