I need

I need to have your arms wrapped so tightly around me that i can't breathe
to hide from all that troubles me
even when i don't know how to make myself happy
but somehow with all my needs i'm becoming needy

words spoken on Monday affirm that you see me as independent
not as needy
but men don't like needy women
but somehow being a woman is a recipe for neediness in itself

my needs are so broad and vague
how can you ever hope to guess them
i need to be reassured
yet somehow it causes my confidence to continue to slide

i need to be with you and no one else
to avoid this period of confusion
and sadness that has been looming over my head
today is particularly bad for no reason whatsoever

i need to be with you for eternity no less
although you've touched on that
i need to know that you're sincere
but most of all i just need to not have so many needs
