The Want to Not Want
I want things
That I avoid
Because I do not want
To want.
Wanting comes with anticipation
And desires, when they
Are empty, I become
Empty.
I believe the best things
In life are unanticipated
Blessings, and if it
Is not a thing,
It is a lesson.
If that blessing happens
To manifest into a person,
I pray that God
Crafted that lesson plan
With the magic from
Her hands.
I do not want to want
Because She is watching
Carefully, closely
Analytically.
Blessings are never empty.
