All I want
#All_I_want
The ticking on my wrist,
start to show my age,
and what could have been,
some memories worth dumped by the roadside. Time is of no essence to me now.
Been pondering,
even these walls starts suffocating me.
Been counting,
with these fingers of mine,
they too can't comprehend my outstanding life expectations.
Someone said 'no man is an island'.
It's getting way too quiet in here,
even my own voice is starting to spook me.
Allow me to be human, to err and learn from my own imperfections, allow me to flop, to account and acquire a thick skin to say my yesterday has shaped me into what I am today.
I wanna let go, peel off, all the pain, loss, betrayals and conditional time I was fed by those who promised they would never leave me. Those who said they were my forever.
I wanna say I love you without blinking nor stuttering, I wanna give in my all, jump in with both my eyes closed, my heart willing and my soul at ease . I wanna fearlessly say my mind, pour in my whole heart, without fearing to be questioned, without being doubted, without someone second guessing my intentions.
I wanna say I do, without being asked why, I wanna recite more of us in every word jumping off my mouth, in every greeting, in every gratitude giving, in my every prayer and smile. Thats all I want
