I've been so independent for so long now
never needed anyones help
i could do it on my own
the cars, the clothes, the house
all earned by me
the red roses and wine
i bring home
no shoulder to cry on
i hold only myself
i only need me
but when we danced
the world disappeared
and i only needed you
your smile, your laugh
the way you hold me
i need i want everything you have to offer
my need for total independence
has slowly slipped away
when i find myself wrapped up in your arms
your touch, your kiss
grounds me to the earths core
where i belong

nice image and almost complete
OK since you said you were still working...an idea about that being "ground into the earth's core thing"...if you have chosen him as a need equivalent to your former love of independence and you then RISE from that core with the new purpose...are you "blooming" rose-like and complete...but now with roots in him? Could you be the bloom (with all of your talents) but now with a firm base of love? just a thought...my poetry is usually a lot deeper than the one you reviewed.
