What I Want
I am a glutton
Filled with cold hearted greed,
For the things I lust after;
For the things that I need.
Would you spare me your engine?
Your most crucial part?
To warm up my insides,
I desire a heart.
On top of that, please,
Include just for me:
The warmth of another,
To answer my plea.
And when I grow weary,
From this world’s pain,
Would you spare me a shoulder?
Your loss is my gain.
Though shoulders grow tired,
As does my will.
Share me your embrace,
To stop this lonely chill.
And in your arms,
Perhaps I would find,
Whatever we call safety;
The illusion of the mind.
The most important of all,
And definitely most rare,
Is to split the lost treasure;
Your love, if you dare.
