what do you want he asks I want to collect the pieces of your soul and hold them close to my chest I want to memorize your laugh so I can replay it in my head on nights I feel lonely I want to listen to every word that comes out of your mouth and become enraptured by your sentences and listen like I'm going deaf never to hear your voice again what do you want he asks I want you

what I want
i want a fire escape love i want a “feels like i’m in space” love i want a looking around every crowd to see your sweat dribbled face love i want a kiss in your car love i want a hold passionately in the dark love i want an “aim at your heart cause i know where you are” love i want a forgiving love i want a long living love i want a “shower you in kisses cause this is what i’m giving” love i want a meadow runner love i want a midsummer love i want a “lay in a field of flowers with the sky above, us under” love i want a fully encapsulated love i want a “you make me exasperated” love i want a never cause arguments or leave me aggravated love i want a strong love i want a hold me while i’m crying hard love i want a never let the sadness get too far love i want a peaceful love i want a hand that removes the letal love i want a “give me medicine so i don’t become feeble” love i want a free love i want a frolic on the beach love i want an “end of the week it’s you i want to see” love and i want an everlasting love i want a light up the shadows that are casting love i want an “end of a disaster it’s you and i that are going to be lasting” love i want you, love

kind of love
"what do you want?" "I don't know." "Yes you do. listen to your heart." "how do I do that?" "close your eyes and breathe. you'll hear voices. that's your heart talking. what does it say?" "I don't understand. It says get better. feel better. but i'm not sick." "what makes you so sure it's talking about you? listen closer. concentrate." "it says it wants YOU to feel better. it wants you to stop blaming yourself. to feel happy. to be proud."

what the heart wants
He is an exponential function. Small rate of change at the beginning, But he grows fast when he reaches a certain age.      I am a function of a straight line. A big constant slope since the beginning, But I also have a y-intercept way bigger than zero.      Let our age be the inputs, And our maturity be the outputs. At year zero, We didn’t know each other. We didn’t know we would cross each other one day.        We have been working so hard. We have been living in different countries. We were like two parallel lines, Which would never meet each other.      But at year 20 for me, And at year 30 for him, We finally crossed each other, And we were smart enough to find our intersection.        We are still growing into different directions, Because that probably will be our only intersection. But we only need that one intersection, Because we are all independent now. We don’t need other people to input data anymore.

Find the Intersection of Two Functions
This Christmas, I want to be truly okay To finally see light in everyday besides the sun and the stars but the shine of my own To smile genuinely without care I want to love and be loved no matter how hard I could be I want my thoughts to vanish along with the sadness To soar and fly and feel free To to have a glimpse of what a magnificent life could be No concrete wish, just happiness It would be great
