Dear you,
I just want some
Thing that is stable
One hundred percent able
A book of non-fiction, not fable
Sturdy as an oak table
I want you to hold me down
Like a steel cable
To the ground
Without a sound
I just want you to be
Bound to my heart without a choice
I’ll give you my heart, I’ll give you my voice
I love
You will be the one I say
That I want to wake up to every day
The beat of your heart is the music I’ll play
My head on your chest is where I’ll
Lay down with you every night
Just one look in your eyes and a flame will ignite
Nothing can convince me we wont be alright
You are the fuel to the fire that I
Write down all the feelings you have inside
Show me the feelings that cant be denied
Lets make a love that cant divide
Just show me some love and I will
Provide you with anything you could ever need
All your expectations, I will exceed
Your emotions will be so easy to
Read the heart I wear on my sleeve
It’s easy to love me if you just believe
If you ask to get, you shall receive
If you promise to love me I will never
Leave your side, I promise this dear
All you have to do is lend me your ear
I want nothing more than to have you here
For all of my life, I want you
Near to my heart, near to my mind
I want this to last until the end of time
So just hear me out and listen to my rhyme
Here, true love is the only thing you’ll find
I just want, you.

sincerely, me.
I performed this as spoken word in Iraq, it's one of my favorites :)
