[hometext] => *** In a round about way, someone pointed out earlier today that I'm rather self reliant. Sometimes... I really wish that wasn't true ***
[bodytext] => I want to be hopeless and helpless
I want to be distraught without you
I want you to be everything to me
- I want to be nothing without you -
I want to curl up next you in the dark
To be too scared to be alone at night
I want to exist in the shadow you cast
- I want to be dark without your light -
I want to be completely overcome by you
I don’t want to be strong on my own
I want to be real and true if only for you
- I want to be terrified when I'm alone -
I want you to remind me how to need
I want you to care for me endlessly
I want to rid myself of what I’ve learned
- I want you to tell me how it should be -
I want my heart to beat along with yours
To feel like it couldn’t survive without you
I want to breathe the air you supply
- I want to feel like I’d die without you -
I want you to take me in your arms
Tell me that you’ll make everything right
I want you to always be the strong one
- I want it to be like it is tonight -
Tonight…
I want, I need, you.

To open ourselves up and be vulnerable to someone is a scary but very beautiful feeling. I absolutely love how you wrote this piece!
"I want you to take me in your arms
Tell me that you’ll make everything right
I want you to always be the strong one"
This is the heart of the poem for me......
Excellent!

I enjoyed and loved reading this poem. It was so well composed, clearly expressed and packed with emotion.
We all need someone to be strong for us at times. But being strong within yourself is a blessing as well. The right combination makes for greatness and healthy relationships.
Very well done on this one...

To fall into a person so completely and have them hold you, protect you, care for you completely and selflessly...to trust them utterly is a form of love and nothing less.
Your write eminates this to a tee.
Beautiful job!! |

Ohhhh . . . SNM . . . I'm so glad you *did* post it, then. This is beautiful, in a raw pure strong way that the rest of your poems --while utter pearls, don't get me wrong-- are not. I love this for its sheer purity of emotion . . . errr . . . whatever the word is . . . just that feeling pinned to paper (screen e_e) so very well.
Great, wonderful, beautiful job, and the message is one I --and everyone else, I'm sure-- can identify with all too well. I love this poem to pieces.
bunches of hugginess,
Nora |

The universal longing. I think this is especially true of women. We hate having to be strong. Oh, we do it, and we're proud of being able to, but we really just want our father to hold us and take care of us. I've written about this so many times. It's a feeling I wish would go away, and yet I cling to it as for dear life. Good write, obviously.

| Oh my! ... I'm so glad I read this poem tonight. Sometimes you read something that expresses everything you wanted to say ... I also feel so tired of being strong, and want so badly to be taken care of ... that would be bliss, but alas we have to keep plodding on for there are so many who rely on us. Well, I just wanted to say that this touched me deeply, and thank you for sharing it ... hugs Jan |

What a write this is and what feeling within it. Im glad I got to read this poem.
"I want to be dark without your light " That was the best line for me |
