What Do I Want?


"What do I want most?" If asked myself this question so many times Yet the answer is always the same I want love Real, true, and deep love with the right person I know that is the same wish for many people Others wish for bug fancy houses or cars but not me All I humbly ask for is love I wish for the kind of love you hear about in fairytales It seems so rare in the real world But when it's real it's full of beauty and wonder One that's indescribable and will last a lifetime I don't want a love that lasts a month I don't want to be someone's second choice I want someone to accept me for who I am Love me through the good and the bad Someone who will live me despite my imperfections Who will understand me on a deeper level than anyone else can A love shared with someone I want to spend the rest of my life with No matter how long that might be or what happens Someone who will wipe the tears off my face Instead of being the reason as to why they are falling I may be a bit young to want this But I think everyone wants love because it's the closest thing we have to magic
