5 Birthday Wishes From a Newly 17 Year Old Boy

1: I wish I was still young

When the attention would be on me

Everyone cared

Everyone celebrated

2: I wish people didn't forget

I wish I was memorable enough for a simple "Happy Birthday!"

For a hug

For a gift

For a smile

3: I wish I had friends

Friends to share my excitement with

My sadness

My disappointment

And my celebration

4: I wish I tried harder

Forced the date into peoples' heads

Made them remember

Made them care

5: I wish for an escape

I don't want to be in this place anymore

I want to go home...

This wasn't a good birthday...
