Don't Need

January 27, 2010
By Anonymous

I don't need white roses
To know how you feel
I don't need a love song
To know this is real
I don't need their thoughts
On our "you and me"
I don't need their permission
For our love to be
I don't need the wine
And the candlelight dinner
I don't need a walk
To know you're a winner
I don't need the park
To watch a sunrise
I don't need an oath
To keep away lies

I don't need these things
But what I insist
I just need to find you
And see you exist

In the purest form, love is simple (no, really!). The only problem left is to find someone to share it with.
