what you want
what you need
what you get
is quite often never the same thing...

I want to be the girl
Who will always ...
Laugh at your jokes
Listen when you need me to
Worry about you seem bothered
Help you figure things out when you are confused
Roll my eyes at you when you are sarcastic
Talk about the strangest and oddest stuff
(And you know we've talked about some strange things)
But most of all I just want to be your friend

I wanted to write for you
A rhyme or reason
To explain what you make me feel
But I can't do that
I have started at least
A dozen verses in my
Poor addled brain
So I will continue
To think of a rhyme or reason

I
Want
To
Tell
You
How
I
Feel
But
I
Cannot
Do
So

I want to feel you
Feel your arms around me
Feel your weight on top of me
As you part me to take me
To make me whole again
A wholeness that I ache for
Yearn for
Burn for
And most likely would die for

It's you I want
You with your arms wrapped around me while we sleep
You with your strong steady heartbeat lulling me to sleep
You breathing against my nape as I lie awake in the dark in your arms
Drifting off to sweet steady slumber

I want to sleep with you
No not sexually just sleep
The chance to hear your steady breathing
To hold you and feel your warmth against me
