Someone

Someone

I want someone to hold me

I want someone to release me

From the prison I placed myself in

From the walls that encase my heart

I want someone to hold me

I want someone to tease me

Let me laugh and smile again

Let me mend my soul again

I want someone to hold me

I want someone to want me

Respect that I am a woman

Respect that I am yours

I want someone to hold me

I want someone to love me

Cherish my talents, compassion and courage

Cherish my sorrows, faults and failures

I want someone to hold me

I want someone to release me

I want someone to tease me

I want someone to want me

I want someone to love me
