Object of Affection

To be that,
that is the 
object of your
affection.
To feel a 
love that is 
one of perfection.
To be the
object of 
your desire.
To be that,
that fuels 
your fire.
To want 
so that it
becomes 
an need.
A hunger,
in which 
to feed.
A fire, to
no end that
it burns.
A heart that
only yearns.
A life of 
longing.
A wish of 
belonging.
I can only
pray for
such a 
blessing.
My love I 
am now 
confessing.
I would
love you 
for a lifetime.
I would give 
my life to make
you mine.
I pray this,
that my wish
will come true,
in time.
