Wants

What do you want?  Tell me what you want
What do I want? Wait, what do I want?
Why do so many people ask that question
They ask in different ways but continuously wait for a confession
I don’t really have an answer, I don’t know what to say
I’m not sure if my response will be perceived the right or wrong way
Of course there are things I want based on what I see
But I’ve been told to believe nothing I hear and only half of what I see
So when picking and choosing, what should I believe
What is good enough for me to open my heart and mind to receive
I’m clueless, I’ve seen many things in my life, perhaps too much
I’ve seen so many happy, yet so many get crushed
I find it hard to live in the moment, however I should try
Instead of concentrating on the outcome and making up excuses of why
Why I don’t think I’ll like this, and why I won’t give it a shot
Explaining what I think it is, what it may be, and what it is not
My mind is often taken over by indecisive or what is called wishy washy moments
Causing me to avoid commitments and make uncharacteristic judgements
To this day I’ve been trying to figure out what it is I want
But I’m still closing the door on opportunity and putting up my front
Whether that’s good or bad, I’ve yet to find out
Maybe its time to open up and see what life is really about
