Notes About The Poem

Confession of the day

perhaps it's true
i admit it
i confess it
i'm an idealist
i want it all
i want the best
i don't want seconds

i'm not talking
about what's material
i want attention
i want affection
i want what's true
and from the heart

i'm an idealist
and don't expect
or want to
ever change
