I Want

I want to be the apple of your eye.
I want to be on your plate, your pie.
I want to be seen by you as first rate.
I want to be the main dish on your plate.
I want to be your rays of sunshine.
I want you over me to pine.
I want to be your favorite recipe.
I want to be to your lock the key.
I want to be queen of your universe.
I want not to be seen as everyone's worst curse.
I want  this not to be a big secret.
I want to say, I've loved you since we met.
I want you to feel the same way too.
I want to be very important to you.
I want to be someone you accept.
I want this not to be a difficult concept.
I want you to love me when I make mistakes.
I want you to heal all my hurts and aches.
I want your love, that I might survive.
I want to have our love thrive.
I want to be secure and not afraid.
I want to know that our love's heaven made.
I want to know a love that's true.
I want that love between me and you.
I want you to know, in all this I say.
I want to know, do you return my love today?
