What do I want? I want a lot of things. All the time I think about things that I would like. Some chocolate, shoes, a nice meal. Most of the time my wants are simple and material and acquiring them is no problem at all.
Sometimes what I want are intangible things. I want to be in shape, to be smarter, to have a better job. But those things too, are easy to achieve if I really think about it. If I approach them with the right attitude and the will to more forward, these things are within the realm of possibility.
Sometimes the intangible things are really fanciful: I want to fly, I want to be taller, I want to have x-ray vision. But as I think about having awesome super powers, I know at the same time that those are impossible things, so I don’t really miss them.
So what about things that are ordinarily attainable that suddenly become impossible? The things that I’ve always taken for granted have suddenly become intensely desirable in the wake of spontaneity and a fate inevitable to everyone. Across the ocean, secreted away in a neatly turned bed and gently held back with tubes, that is how I picture you. Quiet and dreaming, are you thinking of me, of us?
What I want more in the world right now, is to be able to hug you and tell you that I love you.
I love you.
I love you.
