Want

You want all the things that you can’t have

You can’t have all the things that you want

 

Ex-friends, best friends,

boyfriends/girlfriends

 

Whether you choose your circle or it chooses you,

Sometimes you can’t help but wonder about the people you wish you knew

 

Cuddle buddies, make out buddies, twerk buddies,

church buddies?

 

These different roles you try to fill,

But can you find these people when you need to heal

 

Looking to the past

Imagining new futures

 

While time usually seems to move forward, my brain can confuse her

I dream these daydreams and sometimes have very weird thoughts

 

But then I snap out of it, back to the time we call the present

But my presence in the present isn’t always what I expect it to be

 

So I go and imagine all these things that I think I want

But I can’t have them anyway, at least not all of them

 

Because while I may want you, you don’t want me

And that’s just the way it’s gonna be
