What it feels like to be an option

For once

I want to be chosen

I want to be the first option

I want to be the only option

I don't have to worry about who you are with

Because I know you are mine

Sometimes

I wonder if I will ever experience that kind of love

The one I won't be that easy to give

The one where he shows me reasons to stay

The one he recognizes that I'm leaving because I don't feel love

And loves me more

Rather than letting me go with the “if that is what you want” phrase

I want to be needed

I want the type of love I read in books

Where they never give up on each other

I want the happy ending type of love
