Don't Say the L-Word
June 6, 2010
Be careful what you wish for,
It might come true,
I might come true.
No more a figment of your imagination,
Or a whimsical wish,
Fantasy and reality-
Don't you know how quickly
They make the switch?
Be careful what you wish for,
It might come true,
Watch what you speak,
For I might believe you.

i thought it was ok I like the idea behind it.
I liked it, but I got a bit lost on the 2nd stanza. I thought you would compare fiction to reality when you started off with "No more a figment..." I thought it would be followed by you saying "than..." and comparing that figment of imagination to something real. Other than the confusion, I can see where you were going with it, and I liked your overall ideas.
