I sit behind the wheel,

Watching little white lines,

Following their every direction,

Some take me away from her,

Others take me to her.

Following these lines,

Like check marks on a to do list.

Telling me what I want,

What I deserve and,

What I got.

I deserve happiness,

She gives it to me.

I deserve smiles,

She shows them to me.

I deserve to be wanted,

She wants me more than,

The air she breathes.

I deserve passion in a touch,

Her touch oh my...my...

I deserve tenderness,

She shows it to me.

I deserve her

Wanting her more

Than the stars want

Clear skies.

Needing her more

Than trees need wind

To dance.

Yearning for her touch

Longing for her kiss

Wanting to be in her arms,

Feeling protected from the outside in.
