We want what others have, until we get it
We want what we think others have, until we know
We want what is held away from us, even if it is theirs
We want what is bad for us, even if it hurts
We want what we had, though it can never return
We want what we think we had, though it wasn’t
We want what we could have had, in another time
We want what we should have had, left up to us
We want what we think we may lose, though we have not
We want what we need, or need not, all for want
We want everything which leaves us wanting nothing
