Array ( [sid] => 129352 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Love Me for Me [time] => 2006-12-13 01:51:33 [hometext] => By far not my best work...but its about my heart, wish I could write it out better. [bodytext] => I want someone to say that I am home to them,
That I have a beautiful mind,
And have a sweet free spirit,
That my character is stunning,
And have a strong heart,
I want someone that will wait up for me with a light on,

I want someone that asks about my day,
Not one that just thinks of their own satisfaction,
Nor only about their own comfort,
Not one that what’s their way always,
Nor only about their own needs,
I want someone that longs to hear my voice,

I want someone that knows the truth about me,
That truth is that I dream in color,
My spirit flies way above the clouds,
That my character is reflected in my smile,
My heart joyfully bearing more than its far share,
I want someone that appreciates all that I am.

I want someone to understand me,
That I will always think of their satisfaction first,
And place their comfort way above mine,
That I shall let them have their way more times than not,
And that their needs are esteemed and considered before mine,
I want someone that is thankful for what I do for them,

I want someone that smiles especially at me,
I hope that is not too much to want,
I will give them everything with little or no complaint,
I always put them first so they never have to worry,
I give without thought of return,
I want someone that is so very kind,

Most of all I want someone that gladly receives,
All that I give, all that I am, and all I will be,
That they gladly give in return,
All that I have poured out yet never myself received,
That knowing I shall take care of their needs before mine,
Most of all I just want someone to love me for me.

I'm not famillar with your work, so I can't be a good judge, but this to me is one of the best I have read in along time, bu then, it touched a place that so few do.

No, your not asking too much. It just seems that ppl like us, with a kinder soul, seem to get involved with others that just take - seeing as we're so giving. It is hard, but I still onto hope that I'll be treated right one day, and I feel you should too.
This is a nice piece, you shouldn't knock it so much. It explains your thoughts very well and is well formatted. The last line too is a great summing up.
Great write Alison!
