Array ( [sid] => 129812 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => I Want [time] => 2006-12-26 14:57:47 [hometext] => life is beautiful [bodytext] => I got an outlook so diverse
It just drives my being
In directions so random
And out of place

How could life move so fast?
Being a child one day
The next I wake up
Reborn a man

The love I’ve given
Has been taken for granted
Its been denied and abused
Strung up and held down

I just want to move on
With my head up high
Observing all aspects
Of this young souls life

I want my vision to open
And see more of the world
See the beauty of the ugly
And ugly of the beautiful

I want to see the red of the blue
The black of the white
The good of the bad
And the life to death

I want to see positive
See no negative
See no evil
And see no harm

I want to see better of myself
See that I’ve done some good
That I’ve done more with this life
That I’ve made some kind of a difference

I want my life to have meaning
To have some soul
Have some heart
And maybe something more

I want to love life
More than I do now
Enjoy it
make it worth while

I Want
