"I Want"

I want…

Someone who cares enough to ask if and how I slept.

Someone who cares enough to ask if I ate and what.

Someone who cares enough to ask me about my day- how it went and what I did.

I have friends that ask- friends that are there.

But when it comes to the men in my life,

I seem to be the only one asking the questions.

I seem to be the only one that seems to care.

Why?

Why is it so hard to return in kind what I so easily and graciously give?

I love and I care and I invest myself in you.

Do you not genuinely want to be a part of my life?

Do you not feel the need to invest in me too?
