Humans are
People
Not things
But I want to feel
Sought after longed for
I want to be something
Chased then caught
Dreamt about
A dream come true
A blessing in disguise
An unexpected gift
I want
To catch someone
Looking at me
(Not looking away)
I want
To be told I have
Nice eyes
(Not that they like my shirt)
That I have
A beautiful mind
(Not that I’m smart)
That I am wanted
(Not that I’m needed)
