I guess all I want
is to spend
the rest of my time
watching the meteor shower
and make a wish,
or to be
under the starry sky
listening my favourite song
calming the pain in my heart,
or to adore
the vibes of rain
winging in this cozy little inn
whenever I choose
to be locked up
I guess all I want
is to hear you sing
with the grand candence
of your ditty,
or to witness you dance
with your ungainly movements
resembling a psychopath
crossing over the street,
or to watch you
greedily eating
wanting the diffidence
as you take a big bite
not sharing even a piece.
I guess all I want
is to ride on a roller coaster
and scream as it reaches the
steep inclines,
or to go on a mountain climbing
to watch the soothing scenery
waiting for the sun
goes below the horizon,
or watch a romantic movie
'til dawn.
I guess all I want
is sailing through the night,
lost in contemplation,
or wandering
beneath the canopy of trees,
awaiting autumn's embrace,
or losing myself
within the pages of a book,
in the quiet of the cellar,
with a steaming cup of coffee,
for company.
I guess all I want
is another existence—
one untouched by pain,
overflowing with delight,
living as others do.
Another life-
to meet you,
and revel in joy.
Another life-
without infirmity
but vitality
Another life-
to fulfill every longing,
before fading away once more.
Just that...
Just that, I wish for.
And perhaps then,
I'll face the unknown
without trepidation.
And maybe after
I won't be afraid of extinction
And maybe after
I am bold enough to face my fate
without deep regretfulness
And maybe after
I can stop wishing
and wishing
for a seamless life.
