Lonely

a poem about my undying loneliness..

From boys to girls,, and man to woman, 

my love is nothing people wish to summon, 

I think I'm sweet and I know I am kind, 

I know I fall in love until my eyes are blind, 

I can over look his faults and I can overlook her flaws, 

but still, I can't find love at all.

They think I'm pretty, they think I'm cute, 

but I just can't find a love that's true.

They want my body, so they ask me out, 

but that is not the only thing that love should be about.

I need you to want my brain, I need you to want my soul, 

I want you to accept things about me you don't obviously know.

I want someone to want me, I want someone to need me, 

I don't want to be in bed with you, and listen to whispered words so empty.

With you I want to live, with you I want to die, 

I want to be loyal to you, I don't want to live a lie.

Are my standards too high?

If they are, then why?

I just want someone who makes me feel like I can touch the sky.

I want someone who will care and hold me whenever I cried, 

I want a human being who can be satisfied.

I don't want purple skies, or a beautiful pink pony, 

all I want is forever love, I don't want to be lonely.
