I Want

By tgb

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I want little bit of heaven To laugh, to smile To cry, to hide To see those who are close And hear those far away To know with surety They’ll return someday I want to fit in To live within The worlds embrace To feel her tell me it’s ok Her breath My neck To take my pain away I want to love And to be loved To be held To be drowned with comfort To be rained with care By all By one I want to see To know what I must To seek and find To want and to have To give what I see To those precious To me I want to be needed To be thought of Company desired Thoughts craved Ideas to actions To be admired To inspire I want to be understood For others to see To read me like a book To see my truth To feel my truth To trust my truth And find some common ground I want to sing I want to shout To lark about To be a lad Get drunk Get wasted Forget future, present, and past I want to be good To give To help old ladies To be for friends A friend they need To say good things Things good and true I want it to make sense Mostly, and more than others Why sometimes I can’t see an end Or fit in Love, see Be needed or understood Sing or be goodi don't even know what i was thinking when i wrote this.
