she feels the need to be needed
another one's desire--
that's what she wants to be
involved and in love with another soul,
just like hers
but maybe a little different
she needs someone to sit in the grass with,
someone that will play with her hair
and trace circles around her hipbones
while laying in the sunshine
someone that will be her sunshine
on the mornings of the days
when her body feels chained to the bed
unable to face what the world has planned for her
unable to escape the darkness of the room
the light that creeps in through the blinds
and brightens her face
makes her wonder, is that you?
