What Am I Looking For?

Things seem so far away
Emotions  inside lay
Blinded by some
Let the tears come
May they flood the land
Will you never understand
The things I desire
You set on fire
You tear them apart
Leaving a broken heart
What is it I seek 
An answer bitterly bleak
Is it your blessing
My life is what is missing
Will I never stand on my own
I urne to know the unknown
Cant I start my life
My dreams stabbed with you bloody knife 
What is it I seek 
These words I speak
Go gasping in the wind
They play over in my mind
What is it I wish for most
The wind echos like a ghost
Whipering if only I knew
If what I wanted was enough for you
What am I looking for 
Im all I can be and nothing more
What am I  looking for 
 Your love nothing more
What am I looking for 
 Your acceptance nothing more
What am i looking for 
Your faith in me nothing more
What am I looking for 
Your trust nothing more
