To be loved

I want to be loved like they do on those romantic flicks
I know how cliche of me to want that right but i just want that once in a lifetime love
The love that can’t be forced and not easily destroyed 
I’m sorry 
I mean it’s never destroyed 
I don’t want perfection 
I want you to love me for my flaws just like I love yours 
I know what I want and what I want is a man who’s sure about me
A man who only has eyes for me
I want to be loved
To be loved is to be respected, appreciated, and above all to be valued
