I want

I want to be a man my future wife will be proud of.

I want to be someone in this country, someone to actually move it.

I want to turn society's cog, even just by a little.

I want to wake people's minds and stimulate them mentally.

I want to continue to be able to continue putting out the bad boy aura, only to choose who I mingle with.

I want to make everyone around me better, like Jason Kidd.

I want a life that's hard and full of tribulations, as they make me stronger.

I want to be able to REALLY say I'm stable.

I want to give back to all those people who've helped me, and even those who never cared.

I want to tell those emo boys to stop whining, and the rappers to stop frontin'.

I want to be successful with women I really am serious with, and seriously fall in love.

I want to be unafraid of making a fool of myself, in any scope of humanity.

I want to be the jester, the king, the pauper and the general.

I want Christmas stockings to be filled.

I want home-brewed coffee and hand-squeezed coconut milk.

I want warm mornings and chilly evenings, in an embrace that'll hold me tight.

I want to be REALLY confident, and not assume all the time.

I want people, but I don't want them too much.

I want peace, but I thrive in chaos.

I want frugal means and extravagant passion.

I want a simple bowl of rice porridge, while the rain tears the land.

I want simple words, that express the most complex emotions.

I want to write with the fervor of insanity, drawn in line of austere brevity.

I want to cook to fill hearts, and warm empty stomachs.

I want to create beauty, if only to expose that it really hides beneath.

I want to learn everything from everything I do and see and hear, if only to err more humanly.

I want the world to understand that I;d give my life for a moment of its clarity.

AND IN RETURN

---

I'd give blood, sweat, tears and soul...

I'd give all my talents and skills...

I'd give every second of my time...

I'd give every waking moment and every dreamy scene...

I'd give justice to the just...

I'd give my lust for knowledge...

I'd give an award-worthy performance to my role...

I'd give my friends all the help they need...

I'd give humanity the sacrifices they deem fit...

I'd give everything and nothing, I'd give all that I am, but none of who I am.
