That Is All That I Really Wanted Poem by RIC BASTASA

the path today is dusty
slowly, i walk and you pass by

on the same direction
you walk past me like you are in a rush for something

you're fast that is what you want to tell me
i do not really mind for you do not exist at all

i am thinking of pebbles. They are unmoved.
They are faceless. They are saying more important things

than your speed, your fast paced conclusions,
you think that you are as high as a cliff, and unreachable by the worm

you are wrong, i may have been drifting like a cloud
i gather rain and then i feed all that thirst on the earth

i vanish soon leaving no mark. That is all that i really wanted.
