Can I be loved the way I need to be?

To know that I am cherished
And that I am of worth
Not just simply of worth,
but worthy of each and every bit of your attention

To know that I can be secure
And that this love is permanent
Not just you being permanently here
but having an unchanging basis of love & of the relationship

To know that I can love you the same equal way
And that I can be vulnerable
Not just vulnerable in giving you my all
But that the vulnerablity will not come back slapping me one day

Can I?

Personal Thots

Have you ever considered my position?
That the things you do
I am the one having to account for them


That it's easier for you
than for me
For I stand in between


Perhaps you are not aware
Perhaps it never occur to you
But I am caught


Behind a persona I must stand
