A Correct answer
Explanation

The subject 'All I want' functions as a singular noun phrase because the core subject is 'I' (first person singular). In present tense, 'I want' agrees with 'is', not 'are' or 'were'. The phrase 'All I want' means 'everything that I desire', which is a singular concept.
