We live in a world
Where we take so much.
We need more, more, more.
Always more. Never enough.
They say it's enough,
But is it really?
Can we ever be satisfied?
Do we own our possessions,
Do not assume I am in love with you.
Do not think that my hands clenching the front of your shirt in tight fists,
are clenched tight with the desire to pull you close.
My hands are holding you because you are here.
As I enter this day,
what most do I crave?
Unlimited, love-genuine intimacy
with someone who never leaves
Embraced daily close to a heart that's
Enough.
It's a word that describes something we can never have. It doesn't matter what it is.
It could be friends, clothes, beauty, happiness, money and more.
