I want a girl whose not scared to say she’s sorry
In fact, she embraces it.
Says it keeps her real.
A girl whose insane enough to be sexy
Not insane enough to think she’s 100% unique.
A girl that knows I lover her
Doesn’t need me to tell her
But doesn’t mind that I remind her
A hundred times a day..

In fact, I don’t want a girl at all.
I want a woman.
A partner.
Who doesn’t lie to herself
Tells herself that our relationship is exactly equal
It’ll go whatever way it goes
And that’s fine by me.

A woman who needs to scream.
But I can hear her words
When she just whispers
Before she thinks them.
I’ve predicted her screams.

She’s not afraid to be alone
But she welcomes company.
Loves people.
She’s so fucking sensitive
And yet she’s shouting.
She says that that’s what makes her a woman.
Her heart is literally on her sleeve.
She pretends that she hates romance
But doesn’t talk to me for hours
If I haven’t bought her flowers
And kissed her twice since she stepped through the door.

she'll have these idea’s
And theories of how to save the world.
Wish she could go back to being a little girl
Maybe have a few kids with me
Live the life she couldn’t have on her own.

She’d kiss me every morning
Carelessly cut my lips
Laugh while I’m bleeding
…put her hands around my hips.

Kiss my neck
I’d kiss her back
Tell her its what I have with her
That takes away the black.

Crazy enough to love me
She’ll want me to stay
But she wont make me remain
In the shadow of her pride…
She’ll be wild enough to get by
Electricity in her eyes
I want her to light me up
Smoke me.
Make me believe that all this hurt…was worthwhile.

I want a woman
To make me
To wake me
That all this hurt
Was just a long road
Leading me to my baby
So fucking crazy
Mad enough to love me
Sane enough to get by

Well she embraces screaming sorry
Tells me
It helps her keep it real

Sure you got the right woman?

Like most men you want the words.

I LOVE YOU.

Over and over again.
Get a life.
Love is a look ,a call,a giggle...............
You just know without words.
Just a touch,
brush against each other knowing ,yet not knowing.
That is love.
29 years later and it still worked.
xx Al

how about:

"I want a woman" ?
Is that too short
To short a rhyme
To short a time
But all the same
I'm not to blame
I want a woman!

I want [/b/] a woman
Cost what it may
Come night or day
It must be done
I want some fun
I want [/b/] a woman

I want a woman
I dont want two
Just one will do
She'll hold me tight
By day and night
I want a woman

I want a woman
I never have been Bi or gay
So let me very simply say
I want a woman; someone real
Who I can touch and smell and feel
I want a woman

I want a woman
Not for a horny "one night stand"
A woman who will understand
I am a man who all alone
Can never make it on his own
I want a woman

OK, yes it is trite!
I wrote it after two bottles of red wine and a fine dinner

Your poem is serious - mine is not
but yours is good
what is mine?



<Added>

sorry, somehow the bold didnt work - it is supposed to enbolden the first then second then third then fourth word of the first line and last line in each verse and, finally, the whole line try reading it with that emphasis!

dont know how it went wrong - -must have been the wine!

Hi BorderBound,

Some sober comments back to you -

Firstly - I was simply trying a play on words - written off the cuff, having re-read it there is much that was bad in the actual poetry even if the sentiment was real.

Secondly - re-reading yours again and seeing it as having been written by a woman somehow changes the whole perspective -

Isnt it funny how our perspective changes with the information upon which we base our views?

Thirdly - about having 2 women - well, OK it can be fun - but it's been done - so now I settle for just one!

I had just finished watching angelina jolie... if that helps the perspective further ;)
