when I am complete
I wonder sometimes,
in the murky calm of sleep,
who I will be
when I’m finished.
I aspire to be great—
to write the visions in my head,
to share those stories
with people everywhere
who will read
and laugh
and cry
and fall in love,
just a little bit—
I aspire to love—
the complicated kind
that involves completion
and laughter
and fighting
and children
and a home
where we can grow old together—
I aspire to live
to see a day when sugar
means something good, again,
and I only see
accidental blood.
but I live under a mortal sun,
and my wishing will never
make someone find a cure
or fall in love with me
or read what I write.
my life is a constant challenge,
shaping myself with careful strokes
so that when a wish comes true,
I will be ready to leap.
