My Heart

Written by Alek Ridet, 2026

My heart longs

for what it cannot speak of

it longs for the glistening golden waves

of a sunset lake

My heart aches

for the pain of choice is greater than any

it aches for the impossibility of the past

the improbable future

My heart wants

one more day away from reality

it wants to be cajoled into the wrong thing

right thing

the thing that would make this dream come true
