#wantme
I don’t want grand gestures. I want someone to choose me in the quiet moments— to reach for my hand without checking if anyone is watching. I want to feel wanted not because I’m useful, or strong, or easy to lean on, but because my absence would be noticed. I want love that feels like rest. Like someone learning how I take my coffee, how I go quiet when I’m overwhelmed, how to hold me without asking me to explain my hurt. I’m tired of being the one who survives. I want to be taken care of— softly, without earning it, without remembering to be brave. I want to be loved in a way that doesn’t disappear when I need more than silence. I want to be someone’s home, and finally, feel like I have one too.

Where I am Held
The sun sets, But I lay awake, Thinking about the last few days... I wonder what it means? Is it all in my head? Replaying our conversations, Thinking about your smile. So many questions, Not enough answers. I wait for tomorrow, Hoping to see you soon. Waiting for another chance, To be besides you. The simple things you do Mean the world to me. Most people would overlook them, But not me. Hopefully you'll notice, See how similar we are. Notice our connection, And give it a try. Stop being oblivious, Realize the signs... I know you feel it too, You don't need to compromise. We can talk for hours, From the simple to complex. We don't have to do anything, And be together all night. You're so confusing, Give me a sign. Tell me there's something .. Or if im waisting my time...

Oblivious
I want to love you slowly and to have you love me too slowly despacito an as I dance you get the clue you watch me as I dance an like a spell I will vex you hoping you feel me too as I'm wanting to now *** you as our temperatures arise with a look of purest want as you reach up eager thighs it's my skin babe now you taunt, as my hips are slowly swaying an the music slowly playing, as we move to the beat of our hearts in a tandem we can't take this rising heat ahh so we take a quick retreat but slowly slowly as you kiss me you want me more an more as you try to ever bliss me an haunt me now forever to explore, as you love me then jaunt me this could never seem a chore ohhhh..down, yes girl move yourself around, you whisper slowly into my ear tell me baby how you feel so when you're not right here I can imagine you so real this is passion like I need a lover just like this we are hungry in our deed, burning flames of true love bliss as you breath in my sweet fire and we caress our sweet sweet souls as we ignite in pure desire and are returned to embered coals I am so very grateful to burn with you each an every night an until we can return an our sparks again ignite, as our bodies daily yearn then off we'll take our flight, back into the shining of the brilliant and gorgeous morning sun.

Love me slow-oh-ly - explicit ?
I want to hold your attention To keep you up at night wondering about me I want you to desire me I want you to want me I want to make you laugh To make you ache To steal your heart To make you not want to let go I want you to choose me Choose  me. Want me I want to be good enough for anyone I want to be better than enough More than you ever hoped to have... But I am not. I never will be anything more than boring and ordinary I hate me I hate me I hate me For not being extraordinary to anyone To you. @IrisMaddenPoetry

Breathe Me
I'm trying to show you that I love you. I'm trying to show you I need you. Darling, please hear me when I say, I want you in my life. I want to wake up next to you. I want to make you breakfast when the sun rises. I want to cuddle & watch movies when the moon shines bright. I can be your one & only, if... you'll be my one & only too, darling.
