If Wishes Were Prayers, I would Save the World

I wish life was easier.

I wish things didn’t hurt so easily.

I wish I knew how to exist in a world not designed for me.

I wish I had listened to myself instead of valuing the opinions of others.

I wish I had loved myself sooner.

I wish I had done things my way.

I wish I could be free from other people’s ill placed judgement.

I wish I could express myself fully, with fearless abandon.

I wish I could just let all the cares of this world go and JUST BE ME.

I wish this world saw us for who we are.

I wish we embraced joy like we allow pain.

I wish we understood how easy life can be.

I wish we knew how desperately we are loved.

I wish the world was designed to give everyone the space to exist.

I wish the world allowed everyone to receive the accommodations they need to succeed.

I wish the world was so inclusive that accommodations are no longer needed, because it would be completely acceptable to receive help, no questions asked, and without judgement.

I wish my wishes could reach to the highest heaven and mingle with the stars.

I wish my wishes would float across the earth like dandelion seeds, searching for fertile soil to root and grow in the heart of every human being that inhabits this planet.

I wish my wishes didn’t have to be wishes.
