The Power of Wanting

The power of wanting is not to want. Every time I want something, I never get it. That’s my power of wanting. I’ve been so discouraged from all this that I have decided not to want.

I have never in my life ever wanted another man. It seemed as though I was the one they wanted. I was their destiny, their desire. They won. The one time I wanted someone, they never wanted me back, only to hurt me. All that caused me to have no desire for anyone at all.

I wanted him again and again. Once again and again, he was still the same. Never wanting me. I am ashamed to even write…
