The One Thing
There is one thing I want in this life.
The one thing that has everything
The one thing that has everyone
The one thing that means you're living
The one thing that means you're feeling
The one thing that means you're human
The one thing that makes everything worthwhile
The one thing that brings excruciating pain
The one thing that brings heart wrenching devastation
The one thing that causes backstabbing betrayal.
But it's the one thing that brings happiness in every waking hour
The one that gives laughter its taste
The one thing that gives you hope in something better
The one thing that gives you faith in something real
All of these things are consumed by one word
And that one word is what I want to consume all of me
Love.

I love this piece because I had put a lot of thought into it, but once I put pen to paper it all just flowed so easily.
