Airplanes

can we pretend that airplanes
in the night sky are like shooting stars?
i could really use a wish right now, wish right now
wish right now.


what would you wish for if you had one chance? wishes are a pretty complex thing if you think about it. sometimes what we want isn't always the best for us, or could simply never happen. or, should never happen, because sometimes we want things that aren't going to make us happy at all in the end.

and recently i've thought about how choices can lead to two different endings. if i chose to turn left instead of right. if i chose to be happy now, but sad later instead of sad now and happy later.

so maybe that's where wishes come in. we wish that something else were the reality. our mistakes or whatever choices we make, if we wished for different outcomes...what would happen if they came true? would i be happy in the end? would i miss what i had never been able to have?

in the end wishing isn't real and none of that matters. shooting stars don't grant miracles. in the end, everything falls back on you and what choice you actually made. life is an empty page until you decide to lift up your hand and start to write it.

wishes don't come true.
