I was tense
I wanted it because
it would change my life
Or so I thought
I got something
It wasn't the best
But I got it
And then I got
What I wanted all along
Because I wasn't looking
Because I wasn't tense
I had loosened up
Some things happen
The way they are meant to be
But they don't happen
When we mean them to be
Because we look
So hard
that we forget
to take what we get
To enjoy the moment
to be smart enough
to understand
when we are getting
what we want
Instead
We chase
And we get
but then we get them too late
We settle for less
and suddenly
what we wanted
is there in front
Is that because
we didn't try too hard?
or simply because
we did
Fatalists say
things will happen
Voltaire said
they will - if we make them
To go with the flow
is the mantra of many
which flow?
ask the others
a series of choices
of wants and wishes
whoever said
Simple Living?
A goal in sight
no boundaries
A thought in mind
A will behind
Loosen Up
Your Choice
will find
You
