I want to

I want to climb a mountain And see the world I want to fly through canyons And see wonders unfurl. I want to swim deep through A coral reef I want to believe in anothers belief. I want to I want to Be heard I want to listen like I have never listened before. I want to choose the short straw And do something new. I want an ambition Worth fighting for. I want to make others smile Show that I am doing my best. I want the sense of pride to beat in their chest. I want the belief of others and The faith in what is true I want to live a full life In a place with a view. I am not asking for much - you see? All I want Is to live Happily. So smile when you see me And I will smile back Then at last we will feel like We are getting on the right track. ©Jason Disley (November 2021)
