See

I so wish you could step inside of me
for just a moment,
and see the way I see.
And I wish I could step inside of you
just for a moment
and then we would understand
each other
much better
And I believe
if we could see
what the other sees
for a minute,
an hour,
or a day,
it would last a lifetime
and the world would be
a much better place to see.

I never ask for too much.
I don’t think…
Just to have enough.
What is that?
Enough?
A nice car?
A good kid?
A decent relationship?
A house, with heat and good food?
What is enough?
Christmas with a tree.
And presents for my daughter…
A job.
I want a job.
One that is meaningful.
Rewarding.
Makes me proud and eager to get up in the morning.
Is that all too much?
I want to sleep well.
Without guilt
and bad dreams.
Too much?
I don’t think that is too much.

I don’t want to want more than I have.
That is all.
