Waiting for the Wants

I want so much

But how do I get it?

Can I obtain and retain what I yearn for?

And if my desires are received, will I really want it?

In the grand scheme, is it possible I really didn't need it?

Sometimes, I wonder if I'm going to find the possessions that I believe should be mine?

Or am I pre-destined to linger with my obsessions?

For some reason, I've drawn the conclusing that I'm worthy to deserve anything that comes to mind.

But, there must be forces that contradict my theory.

In spite of and against, the list continues to grow.

Maybe, I'm at a point where the cravings can't be contained or controlled?

I wish someone could explain an equation that balances and equals.

More importantly, I would like to snap my fingers and just that quick...all thoughts materialize.



I want much more

I've come to this understanding with the greatest of ease.

But, going from concept to conceived has given me some difficulties.

I'm rather fascinated by fancy-free fantasies where the world accommodates my every need.

In accepting reality, it would seem that give and take are having a bit of a struggle amongst each other.

And I'm staying in the middle with no say so in their private matters.

Can it be that I'm acting like a mere pawn in a very unusual game?

Has my mission become constantly struggling not to become the next sacrifice?

Excuse me, but my curiosity has gotten the better of me.

Do you think there's such a thing as universal dice deciding my very fate?

Ever so often, I have to cease and desist from the belief that all my efforts are a big waste..

Consequently, it's became increasingly hard to accept merger offerings, for queens are accustomed to abundance lain before their feet.



I want a lot now

My journey is long and unlike for others, it not very easy.

The treads on the soul of my fee are worn from wandering in my many circles.

Time-tested methods would suggest that hard work and determination are not always key factors.

The closer I come to the top of the stairwell, the farther it goes out of my reach.

It's frustrating to drive to achieve what appear to be so many elusive dreams.

I've done well to consider the conditions of fairness versus the states of greed.

In another dimension, I visualize someone that looks just like me simply asking to receive.

Whether there's a time and place for everything is no longer my concern.

I don't like being ovely demanding but it's my current belief that speaks:  I'm past due.

I've been advised to just hold on but waiting would require an amount of patience that long ago escaped.

Indeed, there are times when I throw my hands to the sky, and concede to the powers that be.

But after all is said and done, I realize EVERYTHING I want will eventually come to me.
