Wanting to be Wanted
She wants to be wanted
But she needs to be adored
She claims to have been
Somewhere else
But her alibi was floored
She wants to be the
Centre of attention
The apple of his eye
To have a foothold in
The ocean and a handhold
In the sky
She wants to have a purpose
But she needs to have a cause
She claims to be a victim
But her personality was flawed
She wants to be needed
And she hates to be ignored
She claims to have been
Someone else
But her DNA’s outlawed
She wants to be gazed at
But needs watching all the time
She claims she’s full of passion
But her style is out of fashion
She is well and truly broken
I’m afraid
She is a woman high on words
Her letters form a strangle hold
Her obsessions are absurd
Is she capable of learning
I don’t think so take my word….

Will you send her to me? Could I cope with her?! lol.
thanks my friend but she would probably eat you alive.. she did me....
What's she up to there?! lol Ya won't come down on me like a ton of bricks will ya, as the last time I said that to someone?!
we kinda lost touch recently... but if our paths cross, I will point her in your direction..... get a crash helmet and be prepared to sleep under ya mattress....
She wants to be the apple of your eye - oh, and dare i mention, the apple of every other eye too.
Hold back the wrinkles, at ANY cost.
if you know her.. why did you not warn me about her
I was hoping she would move on..... i didn't want any of her new 'prospects' to be put off. Then i met her again..... and again..... and again..... and..... you get the picture?

Hey many thanks Poetic Dan.. much appreciated... Neville
Me thinks, she thinks, she's grossly misunderstood - but isn't that what they all feel, for they never see in themselves being massively self centered - that is so poetically exclaimed here.
you just hit the nail on the head.. this one certainly did think along those lines.. thank you my friend....

A woman high on words is often strangled with their hold - your first lines give the telling Nev on what that lady needs to address.......... "She wants to be wanted
But she needs to be adored"... best to steer clear methinks of such gross disorder.... but then you know that I am sure my friend - your expressions flow easy in this bold lament of a broken female -just catching up on what I first missed
- - your gift of building intrigue is amazing mon ami.............. x Fay
yes indeed.. and to be Frank, well let's just say .... regrets, I've have a few but yet again, too few to mention and yes, I learn't the hard way.....
nevertheless, I have no objection to you catching up.... cheers Fay......
I think this is a wonderful rhyming poem yet a sad situation. Nonetheless, beautifully written. Glad you got out of this situation.---Christina
you are indeed most kind and understanding.... thank you... N
