I Want to Want

I want to want -
I want to look into your eyes and feel 
the weight of damnation lifted from my shoulders.
I want to see endless days without the foresight to end it.
I want to envision visions of eternity in eternal bliss.
I want to hold your hand and feel the embrace of light itself.
I want to embrace your trust and feel the felicity of forgiveness.
I want to want to live.
