Wanting a little sunlight but given a dark haze;

Hoping for attention, instead getting a blank daze;

Desiring wholeness but receiving a tiny part;

Wishing for the finish line but failing to start;

Looking for an escape and arriving at a dead end;

Craving flexibility yet unfit to bend;

Fishing for consideration but swallowing disrespect;

Thirsting for communication with someone who doesn't want to connect;

Starving for discretion but withstanding full disclosure;

Dying for some control while losing my composure.
