Neediest of All
It's sad to look in mirrors
and see a needy one
a greedy one for two,
to want love more
than anyone
you would ever dare to know.
It's hard to play love's prodigy
without first sowing what we reap
regenerating deep lust for trust
through eye to eye wealth share,
when taking care of this one you love
brings therapeutic care
then loving love seen through lovely eyes
grows love of love ourself.
It seems OK to see oneself
as greedy for prodigious glad esteem,
to know love for more than one ego
you would ever care to grow.
