A New Woman
Everything and nothing
Written at 16 years old
It hurts to want everything and nothing at the same time.
i wanted you.
and then i didn't.
And it hurt.
It hurts to want everything and nothing at the same time.
i wanted him.
And then i wanted you too.
and it hurt.
It hurts to want everything and nothing at the same time.
i wanted all that was yours and all that was mine.
it too did hurt.
Every time i want everything and nothing at the same time.
And i always get hurt in between.
Maybe i being greedy and i don't know what it is.
maybe i am young and confused and don't know what i want.
I lay awake and want everything and nothing all at the same time.
So i don't know where life is trying to take me.
It hurts to want everything and nothing at the same time.
i wanted you.
and then i didn't.
And it hurt.
It hurts to want everything and nothing at the same time.
i wanted him.
And then i wanted you too.
and it hurt.
It hurts to want everything and nothing at the same time.
i wanted all that was yours and all that was mine.
it too did hurt.
Every time i want everything and nothing at the same time.
And i always get hurt in between.
Maybe i being greedy and i don't know what it is.
maybe i am young and confused and don't know what i want.
I lay awake and want everything and nothing all at the same time.
So i don't know where life is trying to take me.
