How do you stop wanting the thing you want most?
Want can make us feel and do things we never would
When we want, we don’t stop to think about motives
We just want … want drives our thoughts, our words
But how do you want, how can you keep on wanting
If you know you cannot have, your wanting is … wrong
So how do we stop ourselves from wanting the want?
Do we need another want, another to strive for recklessly
A double-edged sword, want, deadly if handled without care
For if you are to have what you want, often another hurts
Can you bring that pain to others? Something you can bear?
All to satisfy your want, your need, all to get what who you … want

playful and profound. the pain of attachment and desire ❤️
Sounds like a decision between right and wrong in this story. Our desires can be hard to tame.
