Love Poem: My Wish

My Wish

Whoever said there was karma?
Who at all said we’ve all got a special one
If only the world could be just a little fictional 
if only there could be a little equilibration
Of the strong force within, to the other party
If only every piece would fit ideally 
If only there was no selfishness, ambitions and avarice
How indeed things would be simple
How I wish I lived in the third world
The perfect world in my heart
Where love is pure and faith endured
How I wish in life there were no games
At least when it came to love
How I wish people wouldn’t opt for fame
Nor opt for imbalance
Just to keep the inner tame
How I wish in my world, love is love
How I wish love was less of a choice
But more of mutual feelings
How I wish two hearts could unite
How I wish this pain I feel
Was something a bit simple; less inexplicable
How I wish I could stop loathing what I love
How I wish things would fall into place
So I can have my first love in my arms.
