Everything I've Always Wanted: A Poem

You came into my life when I was stuck with him

Life seemed dark — and cold, and heartless

I never thought I would have met you, the idea of it so impossible yet something I've always wanted.

Because my world was so grim.


Your voice, your laughter, your smile

Is something that I haven't experienced in a while.

I've witnessed myself tumble down hills of despair and desperation

But never have I experienced this much joy and temptation

Into loving you, into wanting you, into cherishing you.


I want to jump into the pool of your affectionate words, full of love, full of care

But I constantly wonder if I can bear

If you leave, if you hurt me,

If I am capable of healing

On my own, after feeling such wondrous love and waves of emotions from you.


You're the person I've been searching for all these years,

You're the guy I wanted to be with so I can overcome my fears

Of loneliness, of despair, of sadness

And truth be told

You're everything that I would ever want


Everything I've always wanted.

As we all have learned, people tend to take advantage of us in one way or another. I am sure we all read this short story when we were younger and it follows that same principle:
