Someone Who Will Give You Requited Love

Why do you want to hold onto him?
He is only going to give you thorns
And deserts. He is only going to skim
Your surface and pages, but warns
You that he is not going to dive deep
Within your depths. He does not want
To know you or know what will keep
You up at night. It is going to haunt
And hurt you when he loves someone
Else entirely more. It is going to leave
Scars all over your skin when the sun
Is shining brighter for their sleeve-
Less kind of love and affection. Let
Him go because someone will be out
There who wants to know you wet,
Dry and leads you beyond the drought.
