  1. We all long for something or for someone. Longing for someone, staying in the state of melancholy. I thought this was long enough, guess not.

  3. It was that fruit that happened to drop and roll across the Ralph’s back door storage room, bruised on one side and now unsuitable for sale. That fruit that made me think about how little the world cared if you were hurt, made me wonder for a moment how little she cared. Taking one long breath, I stooped down to the cold store floor and stared longing at the palms of my hands.

    That one apple that rolled.
  4. I am longing for the elongation of my life. My life revolves around the longing of the elongation of long loins.

    I want.
    What do I want? You may ask.
    I want what I want, I don’t have to tell you.
    Who do you think you are to make me tell you what I want.
    I want what I want without any other say in what I want.
    You selfish prick.

  6. I long for my elementary school days, where all I cared about was friends, baseball, and playing handball at recess. Back in the day there was no stress about school, no future to worry about. We just lived in the moment and took everything day by day, having as much fun as we possibly could.

  8. affection. something that was talked about in econ. the cycles that generalize detail and lack love.
    longing is the feeling of wanting and it reminds me very much about fanfiction and relationships and sappy old rom com fics. stories about sad love stories all corny and shit tbh.

  9. the bottle of pills stands in front of me.
    dump them into my mouth, take a swig of water, and swallow. then it’d finally happen.

  10. It’s something that everyone experiences in their life. It can be longing for a partner, longing for family, longing for friends. No matter what it is, its prevalent in every person’s life, including mine. It’s a bit sad that everyone feels longing sometime in their life when everyone should be happy.

  11. Longing is just a weird way of saying elongated. Elongated in what sense though? It is a very frustrating concept because when life is elongated, or your memory of someone is elongated, it creates a feeling of loss and desire.

  12. Longing is the feeling of wanting something that you cant have. It’s painful but gratifying as waiting builds anticipation and more satisfaction when you finally achieve it. You can long for something but never have it

  13. Sometimes I think that there are certain things that we want in our life. Whether it’s something from the past or something that we want in the future or something that we’re getting right now, it’s possible that at one point we longed for whatever this thing was.

  14. Is longing the same as greed?

    When you want something that you cannot have, is it longing or greed? To me, longing is related to love while greed is wanting it because it makes you feel better about yourself. You’re seeking power and control. Longing is seeking something you miss and can no longer have.

  15. Longing could be an emotion. Or it could be the lengthening of something. I don’t understand why does it say long and then -ing but doesn’t mean the increasing or making something longer but is a feeling of what you want.

  16. Once satisfied, what’s next? You get what you’ve always longed for, and then you’re happy for a split nanosecond before you’re onto the next thing. Could be someone, something, it’s here and your mind is gone.

  17. longing is a synonym to wanting; you can long for lots of things like family, love, food or etc. A lot of people feel longing for something more abstract like love of belonging.

  18. everything we want we quantify. Success is nothing, but a big house, hot spouse, successful kids and nothing more. selfish assholes we are.
