I want to be treated gently And yet valuably at the same time. I want to be in your embrace And yet sharing my hugs when you're not fine. I'd give.... To build that value, A value I cannot find... For love is a construct In a society that views construct as wine; Bought, spent, intoxicating... Not a feeling developed over time, Not a feeling of mutual respect, Not a feeling learning and value... And I do want love, But not in a society like mine...

I want to be treated gently And yet valuably at the same time. I want to be in your embrace And yet sharing my hugs when you're not fine. I'd give.... To build that value, A value I cannot find... For love is a construct In a society that views construct as wine; Bought, spent, intoxicating... Not a feeling developed over time, Not a feeling of mutual respect, Not a feeling learning and value... And I do want love, But not in a society like mine...
