My Poem Day

Birthday Wishes

2 min readSep 3, 2021

I spent a year waiting for this,

And now it’s here,

I think, I wish?

I always cherished a day like this.

But as I grow older than this,

What should I want, dream or wish,

That’s more important than anything?

Maybe I’m done with having a wish list,

Or just have time stop where it is.

Maybe, I’m just past all of this.

But, in my heart, I’m still a kid.

Who am I to deny the desires of my brain like this?

So, what do I need or wish

That I can easily place on a list?

I think I’m easy to please when it comes to this.

A happy birthday and a kiss

That is all I really want or wish.

Maybe some cake,

Cause I love the taste of it.

Truth be told,

I spent a year waiting for this,

And now it’s here.

I’m not going to waste time thinking about

All the moments that led to this.

I will laugh and enjoy,

And so should you, when it comes to this.

Next year, let’s not talk about this,

Cause I’m losing time on my wish.
