i want the whole world in my hands

i want to craft with words
i want whatever is inside
to take form, be malleable
i want a good guitar
i want whatever is inside
to bleed out of my fingers
i want a tattoo
i want whatever is inside
to gather itself
find axis on an inscribed mark on my skin
and be soothed
i want a place of my own
i want whatever is inside
to hold comfort in its own sanctuary
i want you, most of all
i want whatever is inside
to release itself
dare passion
risk pain
own the world
as I know it.
