I don't want flowers. I need you.

Appreciation and real gifts of love lead to good places.

I don’t want flowers. I need you.

(We forget what we really  need. Need passion and desire to keep love alive.)

A beautiful woman is waiting for me.

I promise her dancing and presents.

I arrive home with flowers and candy.

Her eyes goes soft.

She whispered “Please don’t buy me flowers.
I don’t want diamonds or gold.
I just want you to need me.
 For you to yearn for my kiss.
 To be overwhelm with desire for my touch.
Take me to paradise of passion.
I want you to cry out my name.
I want you to rub lotion on her feet, legs and body.
Treat me like we are new in love.”

“I don’t want pretty flowers.
I need your desire for my kiss.
I want you rushing home to fall into my arms.
I want you for Valentine day.”

I smile and bring my lady near.

Kiss her sweet lips.

I tell her. “We will lay in bed till late afternoon. “

I promise to love her today and tomorrow. Forever.

This is so beautiful and I feel blessed to have even lain eyes upon it. I hope the one you love realizes what she has and that the only reason this poems exists is because SHE inspires the love you feel. I must say that you have made a lonely jerk chicken a******s like myself have hope in a possible future true love, if any woman is crazy enough to put up with the words I write. SELAH.
I sincerely thank-you not only for good read but also for inspiration that things may eventually get better in regards to my currently non-existent love-life......

A beautiful perspective on love and relationships. This is unique to the other works of yours I've read. Thanks for sharing it.

I have 50 journals of poetry written since 1977. I do dig out the romance ones on occasion. Thank you for reading an the comment my friend.

wow! You can write so beautifully and it flows effortlessly. I truly believe that you were born with a pen in hand

Thank you Michael. I appreciate the comment.

You can't imagine how this poem hit home for me. My husband had a stroke three years ago, which left him not only physically disabled, but with some mental and emotional deficits as well. I want him to still want me, desire me, in the same way that he used to, but his ability to do so has changed. All I really want from him is to know that he loves me like no one else...which I do. :)

It reminds me of the old Cheap Trick song, "I Want You To Want Me." Although, obviously a bit more beautiful in its language.

All we can is give love and hold on. He is lucky to have you. I believe the simple things we need and miss. Wise people try to keep alive the kind emotion that brought two people together. Thank you for reading and the comment.

Totally sweet and something that love should definitely be! I've never been in love, so I don't know how it feels, but, affections and feelings definitely seem better than material things like flowers and presents.

[Coyote Poetry]

Best day of a life is when love is near and alive. I hope one day you know the feeling. Thank you for reading and the comment.

This is a beautiful write sir! It would be a blessing for every man to find a woman just like her. And i hope that every man would always cherish and respect such woman or any woman. Allow me to share a quote, i read somewhere as i find it relevant to this piece, it goes like this:
"ANY woman can spend a man's money, ride his car, order off the menu. but only a REAL woman can help a man achieve his goals in life, push him to be successful, shower him with positive energy and never kick him while he's down." thank you for sharing this

[Coyote Poetry]

Take two people to know success. Thank for the quote and reading.

This is exactly what is going on in my mind right now, so please if you wouldn't mind i would like to share it on my facebook profile so my boyfriend can see it. Thanks for this great write grandpa coyote and thanks more for helping me figure a way to convey my emotion to him.

[Coyote Poetry]

Would be a honor for you to post the poem. I hope he get the message. Time shared together is the most valuable part of our life with someone.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

i like this perspective...i also like the attitude of the woman...makes my heart melt to hear someone say "i just want you"--don't need all the frills, flowers, things, trips whatever...i just NEED YOU!

nicely done, coyote poetry.

This is beautiful. This is a lovely tribute to the woman you love.

Oh, this is so true... I have so many times told this very same thing to the men who I have had in my life. I would so much rather recieve the absolute and undying affection of a lover; the tangible need and yearning of his desire for me, than something like flowers, candy, diamonds, etc. Even cards are better than flowers, so long as they have hand written notes in them :) Well penned.
