A wish because I
Want it. Fatal since with it,
I’m not me at all.

The author's comments:
I hope you grasp my meaning. It can actually be for anything; for me, the wish is to be someone else, yet if I were someone else, it wouldn't be the same for me as for them. It's better to simply accept yourself. :)

Oddly worded but in a philosophical way.

I understan what your trying to say , but the wording is odd. I understand that it's a haiku and that it has to be written a certain way.

Otherwise , good job. It said alot with a little :)
