What I Need

What I want is something that makes me want to open my mind at dawning

The type of emotion that drives the heart to be more selfless and worthy

I yearn for the smile that wakes my soul from years of unrest

The pursuit of this feeling swallows my attention - incessant

Leaving me wandering, pacing somewhat aimlessly

 

But yet, verily, persistently, obsessively seeking what I know is meant for me 

Although, it\'s oblivious to my need for its presence, and so I sink

Where can I get this kind of love?

 

The laugh that will warm my chilly bones from sorrow\'s winter

An embrace that will cure my longing for the slightest of embers

The fire that was once an inferno, seemingly lost forever

Knowing better, only this can ignite what\'s been lost and tattered

Will it ever return to me? Or am I destined to admire these memories from afar?

 

But yet, verily, persistently, obsessively seeking what I know is meant for me 

Although, it\'s oblivious to my need for its presence, and so I scream

Where can I get this kind of love?
