I Don’t Want You

I don’t want you to complete me.
I’m already whole.
I don’t want you to motivate me.
I already know where I’m going.
I don’t want you to validate me.
I already know my worth.
I don’t want you to help find who I am.
I already know.
I don’t want you to take care of.
I’m more than capable of taking care of myself.
I don’t want you to stroke my ego.
I’m confident enough on my own.
I don’t want you to fill my time.
I have plenty to keep me busy.
I have spent my life wanting and now I know it’s different than needing.
I need you to be my partner.
Be by my side through it all.
I need you to be my lover.
Know each other’s every curve and desire.
I need you to be my friend.
There can be nothing stronger than our friendship.
I need you to be my passion.
Without passion we can’t have love.
I need you to always be you.
You are what keeps me level.
I need you to be my obsession.
I want traces of you in everything I do.
I need you.
Body, mind, heart and spirit.
I don’t want you.
I need you.

Stand yourself a little bit more

The world is already filled with lies and deception.
Why would you ever want to add more to it by pretending you’re something that you’re not?
Being honest about your faults and accepting them will do more for you as a person than hiding behind things that you aren’t.
You don’t have to love the person that you are but by being who you were meant to be you can learn to stand yourself a little bit more.
