One Wish 8.21.04
I want to fly
Have adventures of my own.
To grow up would be a great adventure
One I'm not ready for.
It is said that death is an awfully big adventure,
But I would rather live.
I want to feel the wind and clouds around me
To fly and dance with fairies
That would be a worthy adventure.
Although it will never happen,
I can dream that it will.
To stop dreaming about things
Would be the death of someone.
The death of a boy
A magical boy that will never grow up
To share an adventure with him would be grand.
Every night I sit and search the heavens,
Hoping that it will come true.
And every night I wish that he would
Take me away
Away to Neverland.
A friend asked me to write her a poem. After a day of reading Peter Pan fics and watching the movies, this is what came out.
