I Fear To Make a Wish

I fear when my wish comes true

For I know my wishes have wings

And they can fly

From the land to the sky

And beyond the reach

Of my eyes and abilities.

I fear when a small wish is honored

For I know you never do so

Without teaching me 

A new lesson of life

Which tests my patience

My faith and perseverance.

I fear to make a wish now

For I know not my strength

To face the countless tests,

Challenges and shocks

Which always come wrapped

With every single wish of mine.
