I Want the Impossible (do-over)

 All I want 
Is to save the world,
To solve the tangled mass
Of issues 
Woven by the greedy,
Thoughtless
And cruel. 

All I want 
Is to matter,
To become someone 
People love
No matter what.

All I want 
Is certainty.

All I see
Is a problem much bigger
Then anyone else sees,
Then anyone is able to acknowledge.

All I see
Is a world based on an idea
That stopped working long ago.

I see a world
Built on a massive problem 
That no one can fix.
A world
That dooms us 
To look down
Into the abyss,
To be swallowed by sadness
And grief. 

All I want
Is to be happy.
All I want
Is the impossible. 

All I want
Is to be free,
Free of a world that
Demands too much
But never gives you anything.

All I want 
Is to be a force
For good so strong
Nobody can stop me 
from getting what I want.

All I want 
Is for people to see
What I really am.
Something that strikes
Fear into everyone's hearts,
Changing who they are forever.

All I want
Is to be unstoppable,
For the ones who claim
That everything exists to serve them
To crumble 
The moment they hear my name. 

All I want
Is to be followed
By those who know me,
Respect me,
Fear me. 

All I want
Is to have more power than
Anyone else has ever had
In the history of our planet.

All I want 
Is to be more powerful
Then the world itself.

All I want 
Is to be heard.
All I want 
Is the impossible.
