Want



I want a man who drives me insane
First date- padded room
Be right down, just let me grab my jacket

I want a lover who drags me by my hair,
throws me down hard and kisses me soft
Who follows every curve with the tip of his tongue
and doesn't ignore the extra in my middle

I want a man who sends me flowers just because,
Just because...
he leaves the seat up,
drinks from the carton
and snores in the Winter

A man who changes my colors
Blushing pink to envy green
Second date- bar fight in your honor

I want a man who gives me my breath in the morning
and takes it away at night
Love him so much I could hate him, both with equal passion
and never regret one second

I want to be in love.
