We Need You By Collice Rodrigues

We lose our self in confusion to that one single person We rule out all the others and select that distinct version We do everything to make them our life and live in their We starve to death but about their hunger we care We only need your love and not some big favors or treat We have ups and downs but that doesn’t put you under our feet We don’t just want you to kiss us we want you to speak We do want you to call in and not just once a week Maybe not forever but we want you to hold our hand Maybe it sounds selfish but I’m hard to understand We aren’t kings we can’t afford to gift you a gem or a throne But we get engaged, sealing you with a diamond, the eternal stone We are selfless we can give up our life if that’s what your love cost We do realize that every pulse in your absence is a fraction of life lost It’s not a group I refer to when I say we, it’s only a person it’s only me And you know it’s you I’m talking to, yes sweetheart who else can it be -Collice Rodrigues 20/10/2011
