you want more

you want more
than what is given.
whether
it's in the burrito line
as they spoon
your allotment
of chicken out,
or the unemployment
line, you want
more. one kiss
is not enough,
one night of making
love leaves
you wanting. you want
more. more money
for the work
you do,
more love from
those you love.
you want more
from the music you
hear, the books you read,
the movies
you see.
you want what's
missing. it's always
that way, and at
the end it would be
nice to have another
hour, another
second to gaze out
the window,
another day. you
want more.
