What Do I Want?
~ anonymous ~
maybe Shel Silverstein
I want to be a mystery, yet be known
I want to be together, yet alone
Is it too much to ask,
To be famous yet unknown?
To be a wanderer, yet have a home?
My insecurity makes me sick,
Yet my confidence makes me thick
Can I be harmless, yet grip the stick,
Be completely smooth yet have a nick?
Can I live in a lie, yet be true
Can I be unique, yet so like you?
Have no control, yet know what to do?
Can I be ugly, yet beautiful too?
Answer me, I need your help,
Can you help me or someone else?
I need your help, can’t you see,
Are you even listening to me?
I need your help, can’t you see,
Are you even listening to me?
Who are you for me to listen to you?
You’re not famous; you’re not handsome
You’re not wealthy; you’re no one to me
So why do I must listen to you?
You are invisible to me you see!
So why must I listen to you?

regarding the post on the bike, i got it from a friend
i cannot do what u recommend me about the bike;
still, i understand what u are saying, tyty
the best solution is to have both the bike and the girl, in my humble opininon.

i like this poem…nicely done
i look but i dun see. i listen but i dun understand
how r u on this somewat gray morning? thanks for the final episode of “blood moon.” still can’t decide wat i think about it. it’s hard to follow, but i like the detached style, the somewhat rambling, yet curt tone. as for the short piece i wrote, the vnmese version’s already in lv this year. i’m just trying to have an english version for myself, but no time or patience yet :)
Great poem.
I like the photo of the baby with the kitten.
Hmmm, I want all that too
I love the picture of the baby. I have 3 cats (yes, 3!!!), and I can just picture something like this when I have babies! My poor cats, who have had only adult contact!
Yes, I am too nice! I wish I wernt, but then at the same time, I am glad I am. There are some people who don’t take advantage of it, like my husband, and for them, I’m so glad that I’m like this.
I’m a walking contradiction, like your poem
HUGS back to you too!!
nice poem chi wish. how r u? have a great day.
One word: ditto.
yellow. i am ok
thanks, how r u? got rid of the cold (or whatever it was – tiredness)? 
ahhhh yeah right turning into a baby. i wish… but not too young like that. hehehe. that baby just so adorable. so i put him there. ahhh i miss my nephew. guess he’s like that now.
