What I Want

I want to feel love and respect With someone special the need to connect.. I want to feel that I alone matter That I come first and never be the latter. I want to be someones love acclaimed Not someone who is to be ashamed I want a love that cannot be defied One that will not hide. I want to be loved for me Not for what someone wants me to be. I want to be accepted for who I am For I am no meek mild lamb. I am so much more than expected And yes I do sometimes need to be protected But will always throw down and fight For all that I believe is right. I am simple and complex For some days I surely do vex But I will never ever hex Unless said someone is an ex. From my love I want affection No one wants to feel rejection I want to feel like I am needed Not like I am someone to be be heeded. Can anyone really love me for me? Will my heart anyone truly see? When it comes to me is there any clue? Who is my true love? Is it you?

If this is written to your husband, and I think it is, go together and give 95% each. It takes that much giving to succeed in marriage. Say prayers together at night. Never go to bed angry. TALK< TALK< TALK<...Not yelling. Take turns sharing feelings. Use an egg timer to help curtail interruptions. If you don't have a church, get one. The church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is a very family oriented church. Call on a Sunday afternoon or a Wednesday night to set up an appointment.
