I Want What I Can Not Have-W

I do not want to become old I have seen my father in dismay I have been it a hundred fold. I want to eat pizza and pasta And never gain weight I want to grow up without wrinkles. I don’t want my cheeks to blush Like they do after ****** I want to feel even if it hurts. I don’t want the kisses That produce strings of saliva On lips after long kisses. I don’t want to get my education To dance topless For matured men in black suits I want freedom without responsibility I want what I can’t have, I don’t want limits. I don’t want to do anything With my life But write about it. +++ October 14, 2014 Form: Free Verse Dr. Ram Mehta First Place win Contest: The Lazy by Judy Konos
