Wanting

Wanting what I can't have
craving that one touch 
wanting it so much
for now that I have you
I want you no more
what was that feeling for
wasted feelings of wanting
when receiving takes away that beautiful feeling
and I want you no more
desire titillates us 
and gaining what we desire 
frees us from wanting any more
