Cannot Want

I want things… I cannot want

Looking for you in distant seas

Wondering if you could live where I live

In the time that I am living in

But you want to live in a world full of nonsense

Covered in a thick shield of fog and vanity

Swirling into one

Acting as though you’re having a good time

But lacking any human connection when it’s done

You have experienced highs and lows

Peaks and valleys

Only blank pages that you were too terrified to write

That’s the difference between you and I

I will scribble cursive till my hand becomes sore

I will believe until I have seen a light worth fighting for

I will not give up no matter the cost

Never been afraid to lose

Because without follow through, I’m lost

But still I wait for you on distant seas like a lost suitcase

I once packed everything I thought I’d ever need

So I keep waiting for things… I cannot want

Love always, Esha <3
