chase riddle
wanting what you cannot have
having what you do not want
choices are unattractive
Theirs something about the chase
absence makes the heart grow fonder
being knocked back is the challenge
driving for the ultimate goal
the one you do not want
affection is a turn off
a reached goal is no fun
left behind is the moon whilst reaching for the sun
but when the moon has had enough the moon becomes the sun
and if you manage to get the sun and hold it in your arms
the sun really just reflects the moon so you dont give it a chance
alone is what is wanted , needed in a view
but in the depts of the deep mind
the suns still what you strive to find.

The message of the poem is basicaly People always seem to want what they cant have and if they ever manage to get it then they realise that they didnt want it after all , its the forbbiden fruit senario or the grass is allways greener on the otheir side sort of thing :)
