'I want my rights!
I want my rights!
It is my right'
they cry.
What are your rights?
What rights do you know that you have?
Is everything you want a right?
If so, what true rights then,
do we truely hold deer,
to our hearts?
Is it because we think,
everything is a right,
that we take what is true,
for advantage?
Possibly...
It is for that reason,
that we should cherish,
and hold our few rights,
close to our hearts.
There was a saying
about Love having a thousand eyes
but neither one of them is true;
That shows the same here
as 'obsession' is the one seeing
for what is wanting, then publicize its rights,
but that wanting...pushes others...oblivious...without a clue;
Then forgets the heart and everyone, till things will be clear.

- Comment from author about the poem: Maybe it is just me, but It seems as though often when people want something they claim that want to be a right. To a point, it saddens me because it seems as though everything IS becoming a right, and when that happens it overshadows and demeans what is true and is really important. Persistence is key
