Simplicity
comes slowly, but surely

It doesn't come
When it's sought out

It isn't wonderful
When it's everywhere

It is simply what it is
And simply isn't anything else

&ldquo;What I want is to be needed. What I need is to be indispensable to somebody. Who I need is somebody that will eat up all my free time, my ego, my attention. Somebody addicted to me. A mutual addiction.&rdquo; &mdash;Chuck Palahniuk

5 out of 5 stars! The circular definition at the end in this case added to the poem and didn't take away from it like one might presume. Keep up the good work!
