Wanted

Wanted,

Someone to love,
Someone to trust,
Someone who'll take me as I am.

You don't have to look just so,
And on the same coin,
Nor do I.

I want arms to hold me,
To love and comfort me,
Not control me.

My heart and my body,
A hundred times over they've both been abused,
I'm not looking for one hundred one.

Are you the one who can give me these things,
With only my promise
To give them to you in return?

I want to be
Wanted.
