To love is to be vulnerable; Triumph is born out of struggle; We notice shadows most when they stand alone in the midst of overwhelming light.

Said my wishes
with only the breeze to hear. . .
my wishes far and near.

The author's comments:
I know this isn't a perfect haiku. It doesn't have 5, 7, and 5. This is my own kind of haiku. What I'm trying to say in my poem is sometimes my wishes seem so far, and the only one who seems to listen to my wishes is the breeze. But that isn't true, someone listens and it isn't just the breeze, and if you keep on believing, you're wishes will come true.

Thank you so much, TheComet! ^_^ also, you're welcome, but really I should be thanking you! I know ^_^ someday all my wishes will come true, as impossible and hard as it seems. Thank you again, dear.

You're right! sometimes wishes seem so far away and just impossible to come true but life has thaught to be patient and hold on no matter how long it takes cuz the Lord above never forgets us He's listening to every prayer and someday soon Wishes will come TRUE. great job even though it's short but somehow It makes all sense ^_^ thanks for sharing this
