Love Me As I Am Now

Can you love me as I am, right now the inadequate? Can you cherish me the 
special? Can you adore me the not so adorable? Can you desire me the 
undesirable?  Therefore, I am asking, can you love me as I am now the loveable. I 
don't want you to love what I might become - my potentials, but just love me as I 
am right now... the unachievable.
