I do so want to be desired by you.
I’d love to be desired for some small time
By someone who provokes a smile, and who
Perceives the joy in what I think and do.
An artist with a practised subtle eye.
I do so want to be desired by you.
If I could be so known, I would remove
Each fear I hide behind. My love revived
By someone who provokes a smile, and who
Requires that broken silences be true,
Sees pain in beauty, frailty in lies.
I do so want to be desired by you.
I did not want to be aroused by you.
I didn’t need this stirring of desires
By someone who provokes a smile, and who
By just being you, without meaning to
Kindles hopes, blows softly on passion’s fires.
I do so want to be desired by you
By someone who provokes a smile. Yes you!
