Array ( [sid] => 107183 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => I Wanted To Feel .... [time] => 2005-10-06 04:28:03 [hometext] => [bodytext] => I wanted to ignore
The restrictions of this world
To ignore the pleasures
Of this empty humanity

I wanted not to be a body
In this raw freedom
Not to listen to the echo
Of these lonely walls

I wanted not to have to see
The gloating faces of victory
The sun darkening
In the obscured secrecy

I wanted to feel lightly
Nothing want
Only to be

This is on the surface a seemingly simple poem of wants, yet it seems to have so much depth behind it.
A well crafted piece!!!
