Cravings of my Heart

Cravings of my Heart

It's not your handsome face that makes me wanna kiss

but the child in you.

it's not your words that I keenly listen to

but the unheard screams of your soul.

it's not your body that makes me wanna hug

but your tender heart that I want to cuddle.

it's not your lies that upset me

but the truth you try to hide so badly.

it's not just your smile that I long to see

but the twinkle in your eyes.

it's not your anger that I hate or the rudeness that you taunt me with

but the hurt you feel you can't express.

it's not your life that I seek

but a friend is what I need.

it's not your love that I want

but your presence that I crave.
