  the meaning of life is not only to be found in happiness”

  i’ve had enough of meaning.  give me some joy–
  make my imaginary havens real,
  give my fantasy lover flesh.
  but let’s face it, i still struggle to learn something
  even as i try to forget everything–
  it’s nothing but
  a leftover habit.

  i have learned that
  in a life so short as mine,
  one should never sell out for promises
  or sacrificial things
  or months that wound down
  to nothing i understand..

  i wanted to give you some time
  i wanted to open a cardboard box
  and have a god climb out and say Yes I Love You
  i wanted to have a lasting love
  or at least half a lasting love

  half of something
