A Wish For Love

We wish for the one that will love us forever
 But unfortunately we keep looking for that treasure
 Deep inside were crying from the hurt we endured
 That at times we fall for just anyone to feel secured

 We dont understand why the one we want is not for us 
 Or why they dont show us the love that we so entrust
 We try so hard over and over to find that right mate
 Only to end up in the end with another debate

 If only we could realize that loving ourselves first 
 Would then bring that one into our lives that we've thirst
 For it starts with you and I a change we must make
 In order to see our dreams come true and the bough not break
