Dread And Desire

DREAD AND DESIRE

Within me resides a dread and fear
What if totally unlovable I am
What if the woman in me remains undesired
Then, what will I do?

The world I know is a wondrous place
Full of laughter and share
Then why am I stuck deep in this groove
Of wanting, just for someone to care?

Had thought it was just enough to love
That love unreserved would bring passion infinite
Why I wonder did not I learn
That love cannot be bought, even with love?

I say I seek a man who would be mine
But should I seek or should I wait?
For if I seek, shall I not love him to the core
But, do I not instead crave someone who would want me more?

It hurts so to not have him
That wonder who would make me whole
Who would make me stretch and smile
As if I were the cat who had partied all through the night.
