Tell it to the Wishing Well

I won't waste wishes
nor will I whine
you know the kind
of thing
revolving around
appearance 
love 
self.


I'll accept a penny
to throw down a well
I'll blow a dandelion
or follow a shooting star
but to you
and you
I'll try keep it to myself
for petty problems
don't need to fill up
other people's time.
