a thousand wishes

A thousand wishes were all I had

To change my life for good or bad

Those thousand wishes were all I got

From them havoc I did wrought

I tried to wish for what is right

But all was gone within the fight

In the end all I had was lost

my thousand wishes were the cost

so from my labors there was no gain

all that was left was the pain

sometimes the lost is better unfound

and hidden deep within the ground

if those wishes never did appear

the end I dread would not be near

all because of my pointless lie

there is a chance that I will die

the wishes seemed a worthy prize

I know that false as I close my eyes

An end to my life is coming near

I try to keep calm and tame my fear

I could not make it go away

All that is left to do is pray

a thousand wishes were all I had

and because of them my end is sad
