Supplicate my need
perspiration collects & I follow.
Desire me,
a lack of understanding ensues.

Consider my will
winds howl, caught & I follow.
Find me,
a certainty of all of the unaware.

Placate my lust
smoke pervades & I follow.
Love me, please
cause I don't see tomorrow.

                  & This is what I ask
                      This is my need
                      This is my will

You concede to familiarity
& live your life day to day
Taking me by night
Trading a constant for encompassing days
You are okay

                  & That is what you ask
                      That is your need
                      That is your will

But take my nights, please
I do not reproach you them
Take everything I can give
& all that I cannot

But promise me, please
that once you will pander my need
to be happy
Critique is welcome, I wrote this much too late in the evening and I am curious for opinions.
