I want to know
To be sure
That I have
With every fiber of my being
Loved
So break me
Hurt me
Leave me
Make me miss you
Just so I know
That I can
Let me want you
Let me need you
And let me pine
For you when you're gone
I want to know
That all that I want
Is something I
Can never have
I want to be
The broken lover
Heroin of all time
I've walked
Through my days
unfeeling
Uncaring
And I want
To know for sure
That I am capable of love
Real love
not caring and lust
But true
Unadulterated love
And I can't know
Until you're gone
So love me
With all your passion
And drop me
Let me sink
Like a rock in a pond
And I can say
I loved
I was a lover

whoa. the title... it captivated me because i can almost relate to it. the poem was just amazing. it was very different and yet not at the same time. if you think this is your worst poem, then you must be a great poet. this poem is just too good to be here, but i like it all the same. good job.
