Always Wanting

This is me....where all my thoughts always turn to I always want what I can't have. Why? Who makes the rules? Yes, I want it--but I know I can never have it The more I see it, the more I smell it...how sweet it must taste Though it will never touch my lips No matter how much I wish it. No matter how much I plead. No matter how much I yearn. I want it, but can never have it I see it, I feel it So close, but yet so far It haunts my dreams, my visions, my thoughts It's so beautiful, so serene But it hurts I want it so bad that it hurts Will the hurt get better? Can I attain what I want? Is it within my grasp? Maybe in a perfect instance, a perfect world It would be mine, to cherish To love, to hold close But this world is not perfect. And I can never have what I always want
