Hmmm

The desire to be loved? No 
I have a desire to be the one loving 
I dont care about how much i recieve 
I want to give and give and give 
Until the well runs dry but 
Knowing me, I’ll find a way to give more 
I wanna pry into your head and 
Get into your brain and see what it stores 
Although i only go in if you let me 
I wont force my way in   
I want you yourself to let me see you 
The unfiltered you the real you 
The side you don't show any others 
Flaws and all i wanna see it all 
Every last bit what you shown me so far 
Has me looking for more of you 
Because i have this need to see all of you 
It exceeds the bounds of being a want 
I’ll give you all the love in the world 
Without expecting any back because i have a gift and a talent 
The gift of being able to see the best in you yet it's a curse that it's all I see in you.

So interesting, Jay! Some, though of loving, a relationship, is letting that special someone see you too. That’s the true getting to know. I’ve lived long enough to understand a little bit. Good one.
