Today I wished that I got a car.

I was driven by others,

the pace seemed off.

I woke up in the morning, license in hand,

I wanted a car.

A person whispered that I shouldn’t be in a hurry,

Another told me that I should have one already,

I looked at my prospects and I looked at my reality.

I noticed that I haven’t done what I need, and to get what I need… I need a car.

So I sat, alone on Valentine’s Day.

And today I wished that I had a car.

A craving thought crept threw my troubled mind,

maybe that car will have a man, my husband.

Maybe that car will have my happiness and future.

Maybe that car is what I need to fulfill my seemingly unfulfilled life.

A car yes. A husband yes. A child yes. A career yes. A smile yes. Pictures of my smile yes. Pictures of my husband yes. Pictures of my car yes.

Today I wished for a car.
