Christmas Wishlist
Growing up, most children hope for mum and dad's presents
I was passed around foster families wishing for my mum and dad's presence
But I had a roof over my head, so How could I be sad?
Maybe because I was always just craving the parents I never had
I never cared for Christmas and I still don't if I'm being honest
I wish I could speak openly about a lot of my personal topics
But I struggle to speak so I have to write them in a poem instead
It'd be nice if I could learn to express everything that's in my head
I hope Manchester United start to play well and remember how to win trophies
When I meet the girl of my dreams I hope she loves the future me, current me and old me
I hope that me and my friends have some of our best days because we've survived some of our worst nights
I hope Wilder and Fury have a rematch and the judges don't rob Fury off the win like they did in the first fight
The ultimate gift would be Demi Lovato and I'd really enjoy unwrapping the packaging
If Santa delivers her to me would it be classed as romantic or human trafficking?
That was a bad joke but I'm a wannabe comedian at heart
I stand with Palestine and hope they will be free, the souls healed and all of the evil departs
I hope my loved ones never have to fake a smile
I hope no poet gets writers block because I've had it for a while
This is my first poem after a bout of writers block so of course it was never going to be good
But if you're reading this I hope your Christmas is filled with happiness and love
