Untitled

when it comes down to it,
all I want is someone
to tell me that it's all going to be okay.

someone
who, in my dark times, can hold me
and let me cry.

someone
to see me, as I am, every flaw
and fairytale.

someone
who will stand up for me,
but who will want me to stand
for him, as well.

someone
who feels me, who tries to understand me,
even when he doesn't, even when he can't.

all I want is someone
who needs me in his dark times,
who isn't perfect, but real,
who loves without hesitation,
who can take all my moods
and troubles, in stride,
who can argue one minute
and make love the next--

all I want is someone,
and I want that someone
to be you.
