Wished And It To Get



Question.
Who is it that misses,
What it is wished.
But never to have had.
To depend upon and it to get.
Known to feel this and felt it missed?

'Well...uh...,
How about honest and true relationships.
Loyal and devoted and faithful friendships.
And a companion considered special.
Experiencing together intimate moments.
With a loving to share their lives like this.'

Okay.
Now...
Question.

'Go ahead.'

Who is it that misses,
What it is wished.
But never have had.
To depend upon and it to get.
Known to feel this and felt it missed.

'Well...uh...
That sounds familiar.
And similar to your first question.
All I can say is this,
Who is it that would waste their time...
Sitting to miss what they wish,
To have never experienced what it was?'

My thoughts exactly.
Then why...
I wonder.
Do people who get what is wished.
Seldom seem satisfied.
To then want what someone else has.
While listening to hear,
Them complain about it.

'You know...
The one thing I have yet to hear,
People expressing their wish to experience?
Is poverty.
And you would think,
Since it is everywhere not to miss.
There would be more,
Hoping to impress...
Those they know to make them jealous.
Since they imitate everything else,
To make claims they originated it.'

Well...
There are some things,
People create.
But prefer others take the credit for it.
With a doing to ensure,
That attention given is placed elsewhere.

'Oh, wow.
I never thought about it quite like that.
That's generous of them.
And how they go about,
Showing their appreciation.
In such a giving and unique way!'
