Wanted

I want what's wanted,

A prized possession of the haunted

A beautiful masterpiece that warms the heart

One that helps me to stop from falling apart

I don't know if it's real, but it is real

To me, it's all I can feel

A loving grasp beyond the heart,

From the finish line to the start.

Dreaming of what could be,

Willing to wait and see

The damage to be done, and the broken undone

The happiness to fix, just for this one

For just this once.

Is it a possibility?

One to be free?

To finally move past and on,

Fly away and disappear to be gone

So beautifully soothing, a light in my eyes

Sparks up and the pain quickly dies

My heart is happy and my chest feels warm,

A problem mistook from the rippled arm

Perhaps this could be what helps,

What pulls me out of the depths of these Hells

What's wanted is you,

A beautiful masterpiece that seems so true

Maybe just a fantasy and a dream,

But to be real,

It could stop my blood's deathly stream.
