Wanting to want


I want to remain dumb

I want to remain numb

I want to remain innocent

I want life to be instant



I want to remain stupid

I want life to be insipid

I want to be in peace

I want strife to cease



I want to rest my eyes

I want no more goodbyes

I want to lie down and sleep

I want to be on top of the heap



I want to get all in this world

I want everything unfurled

I want to rise to the top

I don’t want anything to ever stop

The constant battles you face reflects in the first 3 stanzas. Your words beautifully captures your drained state.. when the reader feels little down and sad for you, there you erupt with bouncing optimism and energy and i liked that a lot :)You will get everything you crave for! keep writing Manoj!
