  2. it eats away at his edges. he sees olivier in a suit, ready to go out, and that feeling twists in his gut and makes him bite his lip. it’s unfair, he thinks, really unfair, that this should come upon him at so unfortunate a time; this consuming feeling. but for now he figures he will want, and watch, and wait.

  3. Wanting, not to be confused with longing or wishing. Wanting, not needing. wanting.,..,.can get one into deep trouble. letting go of wants, letting go of ego, frees me to be more fully present in my life today. Wanting….just gets me into debt. not very poetic tonight. it is just real.

  4. Wanting more of life you turn to the basic human
    an animal of epic proportions
    you see life for what it truly is
    an orgy of the animal soul

  5. Wanting is the act of desire. Many people want for many different things, commonly wealth, power, and sometimes, love. Wanting can be used to describe jealously, loosely. Say, wanting, or coveting, thy neighbor’s wife. In that sense, everyone wants for something, as desire is as natural as instincts in of itself.

  6. everybody is filled with wanting. wanting to be close, to be near to another human. this innate wanting drives our every action. humans are neither inherently good nor inherently evil. only inherently wanting.

  7. I know what I want, and I used to know how to get it. But how could he possibly understand how I feel right now? This has to be the worst form of wanting. After three days of seeing him, of knowing him vaguely, I want him to feel like I do. But I don’t believe he can. I’m already paranoid. Argh, I do, and do not, want love.

  8. what do I want? Is it a better life? A woman that loves me? Could it be money that I want? Iam not entirley sure, so do I go about trying to obtain these things or do I continue to live my life wanting…

  9. I want to be with her more than I can say. I want to take it all back. everything I didn’t do; everything I did. the things I couldn’t say, the things I did. I want her. I want to touch her; kiss her; taste her.

    I want time to stop. I want it to stop; so I don’t ever have to forget what it’s like not to have her around…

    But at the same time; I want it to blaze by me; so that the time without her goes by quickly..

    And before I know it; she’ll be back in my arms again. Just like last year.

    I want this to never end,

  10. Wanting
    Needing
    the difference is the
    Equivalent to the distance
    between any two galaxies in the
    Universe.
    The chasm between love and hate.
    the difference between two
    sides of the same coin.
    The verb to end all verbs.

  11. I’m wanting to cry. wanting is everything a person needs or desires in the world but can’t have it. Wanting can be peace of mind.. wanting can be anything.

    I want to make it out of this world. i want to make it into the next world. i want everything in the world. i want sex. I want it now.

  12. I’m wanting some quiet so badly! I’m already sick of living in the dorm and I’ve only been here a day! A freaking day! I miss my home and my couch and my bed. I wanna go home!

  13. I live my life wanting. Wanting a lover, friend, money, better health. I actually have all those things but still want. Want is need, desire and lack of self worth all wrapped in to one. I still want all life has to offer and struggle with accepting all life has to offer.

  14. I want a cure for this earache. I know that it’s not a profound meaning…or somehting quote-worthy. All I know is that both of my ears are to the point of bursting…and this scream on my lips is soon to follow. That, more than anything else, is “wanting”.

    Sorry for not being Twain, but there it is.

  15. I find myself wanting to get near you, your funny face, your hilarious laughter, the way your eyebrows furrow and the attractiveness of your hands upon your guitar. It is a yearning and a strong desire. WHen we meet in real life, I will only put my arms around you and hold you very close. It is what I have been wanting for a very long time. It will be wonderful. Now I know what wanting feels like.

    Heidi
  16. wnating is the feeling you get when you see someone with a new Macbook. the way a child feels when it sees another with a lollipop. wanting is the most basic human urge. and thats what it is really, an urge. A yearning that reminds us that we aren’t happy with what we have. We are not complete. A reminder of what we lack.

  17. Wanting, i lack wanting, wanting is something i’m not used to. Maybe thats why I lack direction. Direction can be a motherfucker if you don’t want one to go it, its like being in an airplane, and your stuck in the clouds, life is moving but you have no idea where you are or where your going.

  18. desperately seeking finding grasping in both hands the wanting is always there and always the inseparable companion. How to tame it , how to bring it to heel? It is ineluctable and inscrutable. But I love it.

  19. wanting is needing is wanting and dreaming
    dreaming in your eyes, in the moons of the lives of several peasants.

    Who you are isn’t what you’re saying, but it is. It’s looking into the life of the stars, into the life that is the night. the love that is the night. run away into it.

  20. i want a shack alogn the ebachside in goa. i want to go scuba diving. i want to sit by the sea and liste to music. as a form of therapy. i want to make a wishlist that mean soemthign that i will want later too.
    wanting could be many things.

  21. i really want him back i’ve never had such a strong wanting in the entire world. its not even a want anymore its to the point that it’s a need. weird that this word came up on this random thing. i want him home. i want him with me. i want him to kiss me, hug me, love me. like i do him. all the time.

  22. Having seen the closing ceremony at the Olympics, I think the one word that will sum up best the London Games in 2012 is destined to be “Wanting.”.

  23. here’s what I want. someone to sleep next to me right now I guess. someone that I really care about, maybe just so that I can hold their hand, and fall asleep more easily than I normally can.

  24. I’ve been wanting to fall pregnant so badly. But it seems it’s happening so easily to everyone else and I’m ending up being frustrated and pressurised. Why amd I wanting it so badly?

  25. i’ve been meaning to tell you,
    been eager to let you know,
    been fretting to let the words speak.

    i’ve been longing to hold you
    been yearning to feel these hands
    been thinking about the sensations.

    i’ve been hoping to make you see
    been praying to let you realize
    been wondering if this is all.

    wanting you, needing you, loving you.

    the worst kind of pain.

  26. i want a life. i want to know who i am. i want an identity. my talents, my abilities, are unknown even to me. Who am i. What will i become. I want to know. I want a life beyond petty superficial arguements, i want peace.

  28. Mmmm, such a specific image comes to mind.

    Wanting… Her. A cigarette. Ukulele. Soft voices. Cheap wine. White sand beach. Full moon. Meteor shower. A blanket. Skin. But mostly just her.

    She seems really far away for some reason, and it makes me sad when I think of pretty things like th
  29. a Explosion of a major building to cause chaos and bend reality for the blind masses of humanity.

  30. wanting as lacking, craving, void

    or wanting as desire
    desire is the crux, desire is the key

    freedom

  31. I’ve been wanting to tell this to you. That I want material possessions. Possessions that people would feel envious of. I want wealth, I want power. I want everything else except emotions. I want nothing else to spend time thinking about him.

  32. the moment I saw her I started thinking. She didn’t look very happy, and she was up to something, I just knew it. I had to play it smart. I pushed the chair away from the table and motioned toward the door. She nodded.

  33. what the fuck is wrong with so many of these entries? this is just the perfect example, we are given a single word and the first image to come to mind is greed. Be it of the flesh or in power. That is what has tainted our tongues, this want that we can only salivate over, that is the taste we have been trying to spit out. That want is what makes us vomit, but still makes us eat what we just puked.

  34. There are a lot of things I have been wanting. Music as a profession, for instance. Better things for my house, would be another. I’m currently wanting a better President – just saw Obama’s speech and I like him a lot. I like a lot of things. My doggies and my kitties for instance. And my Truman. Oh how I miss my Truman.

  35. he’s wanting a banana for his lunch on Mars.

  36. I have been wanting more and more things all my life, but none of them ever really fufilled by true longing. Longing is for something which thought and desire and wanting cannot touch, wanting is always for outside of yourself

    Arjuna Ardagh
  37. shit, wanting is something that can’t be explained cause once you have it it doesn’t seem as special anymore. its almost more about the anticipation then anything. wanting is just setting yourself either up for waiting or discovery and either of the two are brilliant.

    Robert Haarsgaard
  38. this is only one word. so writing, like other words, it kills some life in it, yeah just one word, reminding me of time somehow.

  39. Desire. That’s all it is. What do you want? What are you yearning for? Why not go for it? What have you done for it? If you do not try, you won’t get it.
    Some want money, a new car, a better job. Some want freedom — from parents, rules or oppression. What do you want?

  40. longing, a need for sustinence. to posit a transition. exhale but not for long. the necessity of now brings forth the awareness of without. please please me you say. in time good sir. in time.
