I Need You
Need is a basic word
It conveys so much
Through just those 4 letters
I've turned it over
Run it through my head
I've discarded it though
This is more than that
I hunger for you
A touch of your hand
The sound of your voice
The taste of your lips
Your body dancing with mine
I yearn for you
The calm steadiness
Your loving acceptance
Safety and security
Warmth and hope
I long for you
To be home with me
To fall into my arms
To say my name...
...just like that...
I obsess over you
See you in everything
Share my all with you
See this depth in us
And raise the stakes
I'm addicted to you
There is never enough time
I must have more of you
Every moment sweet torture
My drug of choice
Or maybe...
Need is the perfect word
I can't function without you
You are the breath of life
My heart, you are the beat
You are the flames of desire
My everything, my soul
I need you...
