Something that I want

April 16th, 2008 by sixpegs

There is something I want.
It is not a Gucci bag.
It is not a Cartier watch.
It is not a Bvlgari ring.I want to own an acoustic guitar.

There is something that I want.
It is not a Louis Vuitton purse.
It is not a Agnes b chain.
It is not a pair of Prada shoes.

I want to stop time with the camera shutter.

There is something that I want.
It is not a Mont Blanc pen.
It is not a Chanel purse.
It is not a trip to a fancy restaurant.

I want to have her painted on the walls of my room.

There is something that I want.
It is not to have a glamorous job.
It is not to have the perfect parents.
It is not to have all the money in the world.

It is to secretly kiss someone I love on the Eiffel Tower.

There is something that I want.
It is not an expensive car.
It is not a wealthy boyfriend.
It is not to have everything to go my way.

But to have a charmed life like hers.
And to find simple pleasures in life’s tiniest things.

    if i’m jason’s girlfriend, i’ll be super miserable!
    he has been away for so long!

    geo, its okay. jason is the first on the list because it was arranged by alphabetical order. and coincidentally, Jason comes before Lianie, Rossie, Shiyin and Sindy. so the J comes first lor! HAHA!
