Wants

by Shelby ©

I want, I want,
We all have heard or said.
Is it something that we are born with,
Or something that has been bred.


When we were young,
We wanted everything we seen.
For some us that didn't get it,
We could cause a graphic scene.


As we grew older,
Our wants are more expensive.
Some lose what dear to them,
Let wants become our priorities.


We can see the world,
As it revolves around us.
But we lose the most important want,
Wants of a friend caring touch.


Our wants for compassion,
Become void in reality.
We lack the powers to understand.
We react irrationality.


Harmful and unkind,
Some wants may become.
When all was ever wanted,
Was to be loved by someone.


I don't really know,
If wants are born or bred.
But if only for today,
I'll think of someone else's wants instead.
