Love is being wanted
without being needed.
I want to be desired
for more than my necessity.
Do not say you need me.
I do not want to complete you.
I want to be
-fine wine
-chocolate
-art
when you have
-water
-food
-shelter.
I want you
to have all that you need,
and then
let me be the one thing
that can bring it all
-together
-meaning
-life.
I simply want to add to your life
in ways beyond basic necessity.
And perhaps we will find
these things we want,
these unnecessary
-desires
-luxuries
-joys
found in each other
were all we needed after all.
