Cocooned In a Single Being
I do not seek words of praise
Or words that you may think that I might like to hear
I seek the purest heart and soul
Sincere,
I seek not what money can buy
But rather, I seek what money cannot buy
Health and happiness
I seek not your smile when you are awake
I seek this even when you are asleep
Contentedly sleeping in my arms
So that you may rise the next morning
Refreshed and smiling
I seek not only sweet words from your lips
But the melodious utterance with love and respect
The voice that echoes in my head
I seek from you exactly the same as I will give to you
With honour, respect and understanding
I seek the adventurous you, that playfulness
So rarely found
Chasing me with a water running hose in your hand
I seek your fearless heart and open face with love in your eyes
I seek to read your mind
When separated by a million miles
I seek all of those cocooned in one man
Strength gentle spontaneous humour
All that we deserve
