I've been seeing shooting stars lately
flashes of light against the dark sky
gone before I recognize what they are
it's been so long I've forgotten how to wish
what am I even allowed to wish for
can I wish for a better world
in times full of death and injustice
or do I have to wish for myself
so I finally have a place I belong
do I have any wishes left for me
have I spent my tokens carelessly in youth
when all I wanted was romance
though I already had all I needed
privilege blinded me to reality
I hope I have one wish left in me...
-Zero
