Yearning To Be Loved

Love,  I cannot understand
I have spent my life searching
Yet I am still yearning

Some say you are a great lover
I say you are a mighty destroyer
I have not yet grown to embrace you 

I have loved in vain
There's a mighty pain
Embedded in my heart.
 
There is a great desire to know you
How I want to hold you
There is a need to own you.

Love come and steal me
Bewitched me
Please posses me.
