Birds and Butterflies

I'm wishing on a star

that doesn't exist.

I'm finding all the wrong answers

deep in the mist.

I'm hoping the impossible

suddenly comes to life.

I'm putting an end to my words

all sadness, pain and strife...

I'm seeing my world

fall apart in my eyes.

I'm speaking the language

of another girl's lies.

I'm sitting with the bees,

the birds and butterflies.

I'm forgetting the reality

of a bad life in disguise.

I'm thinking of a wonderland

it's just so hard to find.

When every day I sit and think

Why can't I kill my mind?

Sometime in my life I couldn't sleep. Too much going through my mind. I had to learn to meditate to find sleep. I like how you told the story. Hard to set-up thoughts and dreams. I like the ending. Hard to make the mind turn off. A excellent poem.

Nice job. I like the structure of this poem--it really flows well. I can relate to these thoughts.
"of another girls lies." --> "girl's"

Oh how I wish we could numb our minds but then we wouldn't be able to express such pain into poetry. Excellent work.
