Pine, Yearn, need, want

 

I want somebody to call my very own,

To love, to cherish and share a home.

Sit down and listen to an innermost secret

And my bad side of nature for him to expect.

 

I need love and care and to be held tight,

When I知 one under par and things are not right.

To be looked after when I知 not feeling too good

And if I知 not making sense, to be understood.

 

I yearn to always give as much as I take,

So next time around they値l be no mistake.

Fundamentally speaking, on both sides it痴 trust,

Decisions between us with minimum of fuss.

 

I pine to lessen his problems when life gets tough

And talk through slowly when enough is enough.

Hold hands and comfort when things are bad,

Cuddle and cry when he痴 feeling sad.

 

On both sides there must be mutual feeling

And treat each other as human beings.

And actions always speak louder than words,

A token of love, your promise, your word.

 

 

The time will come when I値l fall in love,

Keep my promise (again) 奏il I ascend up above.

To love and live in sweet harmony,

How long before this値l happen to me?
