I sit behind the wheel,
Watching little white lines,
Following their every direction,
Some take me away from her,
Others take me to her.
Following these lines,
Like check marks on a to do list.
Telling me what I want,
What I deserve and,
What I got.
I deserve happiness,
She gives it to me.
I deserve smiles,
She shows them to me.
I deserve to be wanted,
She wants me more than,
The air she breathes.
I deserve passion in a touch,
Her touch oh my…my…
I deserve tenderness,
She shows it to me.
I deserve her
Wanting her more
Than the stars want
Clear skies.
Needing her more
Than trees need wind
To dance.
Yearning for her touch
Longing for her kiss
Wanting to be in her arms,
Feeling protected from the outside in.
