All I Desire (Longish)

I don’t want the stars
I don’t desire the moon
I want no home on the clouds
All I desire is my feet on earthly grounds

No sparkles of diamond
No shiny pearls from the deepest oceans
Don’t require jeweled crown
All I desire is no pain

No pots of gold
No sterling silver
Don’t seek too much of green paper
All I desire is you to be spare
And with me you spend quality time

I don’t want a heart of gold
All I ever needed
Was and is a pure and simple heart
That knows how to cry and bleed

I don’t want all the fluffs
Just a simple warm kiss
Don’t look for forced laughter
Just a simple smile will do

I want the love
Only if you want to give
I’ll be by your side
And together we’ll succeed

A trip to a dollar store
A Mc Donald pie for a buck
Or a single rose, only if you must
A cuddly little bear
Or a tiny box of chocolates
Anything you do for me
All I desire is for you to think of me

I seek the riches
But not in your pocket
The one hidden in your gentle heart
I seek sparkling diamonds
I see in your eyes
The necklace of your masculine tender hands
Around my neck, all the way to my waist

Play with me in the rain
Let’s go build a snowman
A walk on the autumn leaves
Or a stroll in the spring parks
Sit by me as I lean on you
Watch with me people pass by
A morning cup of tea
Toasted breakfast
Sometimes you bring me to my bed
Do what ever
All I desire is for us to be together

Let me be your inspiration
As you inspire me
I’ll take care of you
If you share your life with me
Little things you would do for me
This is all I desire

My heart once broken
Many at times was used and thrown
Now here I stand alone
Behind closed doors
My heart locked and bolted
Hidden are all my aspirations

Knock my door and I’ll peak through the window
Be patient and don’t run away
I might let you in
If you show me the keys
Not if you’re a super man
Or drive in front of me in Mercedes Benz
Send me the expensive stones
Chocolates with hugging bear
Next to the crystal pot of flowers
All these don’t mean a thing
Will only and only
You will possess the key
To the bolted heart of mine
If you are first
A nice, caring, loving person

I don’t care of the past
You stand before me in present
Whose hand I will take and walk into the future
Sure but don’t lie
Don’t hide the truth
Let your mind rest
And let your heart speak
For I’ve time to listen before I leap

Stir stew in the kitchen together
Love the sweetness of desserts
Take a plunge into Spices
Respect my norms and culture
Celebrate Indian festivals
Little things you need to remember
As with me you enjoy life’s simple pleasures

If we be together
We will not be very far
From the riches and all the luxuries
We shall build beautiful home
With lots of animals
Grow our own herbs and flowers
Keep a separate room for almighty power
Where I would say my daily prayers
Seek his love and blessings
To begin our happy lives together, everyday

When the time will be right for it will be
You and me sure will see, then will we
Tie the knot and go through grueling
Four days of long Indian wedding
After we run the aisle and say we do

What more can I say
I just hope and pray every single day
As we start our lives together on that special day
I know we will be ready
Forever to cherish each other
And will have the blessed power
To create a new life, the product of our love for each other

I will smile as I will watch you play
With tiny little toddler that will come our way
Nourish them with our love and support
And watch them flourish into healthy caring beings
When they will be ready to leave the nest and fly away
Let them go and say our goodbye
To start all over, only this time by
Watching our digital video memories
And laugh at our kids repeating our upbringing

All the above will be possible if we will remember
Understanding will build a strong bridge in between
If we will be open to communication
Don’t say, much just a quick hello over the phone
When the night falls, a bear hug from you will be more than fine
Light dinner conversation
If not on week days, at least once over the weekend will suffice
All I desire from you and me is no false pretence.

This is my dream for you and me
Get this and only then fill in the application
For I will discard if it will not fit the description
So, are you ready to be my man?
My soul mate, the other half?
Or you are not man enough?
This is all I desire for us, you and me

    It is very easy for the words to flow when they are being written about our heart's desires. This is all so very, very true, it's not the material things but just to be considered by the one you love is all that is truly needed to be happy.

    Sweet and Innocent. The world needs more of this.

    Commendable desires. Wish I could put my desires into words, but can't. Seems like it would be expectations and expectations are meant to filter life and it's beauties somehow (and also the beauty might go away by investing in it thus). Not altogether the best approach for me, but it's sort of where this poem leads me after the fact, if you will, if that makes sense. I also like that someone can still purey seek trust through trust. Getting rare these days.

      I love your such encouraging truthful comments. Thanks for stopping by and reading my piece. My dad always tells me when you think it's very simple, you can be sure, it will be the hardest to achieve & of course he is never ever ever wrong, he's the genius kid and he is the bestest of the bestest (I'm not biased or anything ). Also expectations lead to frustration, I believe in this too.. These are simple common things that every soul desires may be more at times, but the basic necesessities of life still remain the same. Then again common sense is the most uncommon thing in this world too. Any how, thanks for stopping by buddy!
