Do You Think I'm Asking Too Much?
It's late at night once again
Which means more Katie's late night ramblings and thoughts
The more I think about it, the more I realize that there were alot of problems with my relationship with Mitchell
And in the long run, if he had not broken up with me, within a week or two, I probably would of broken up with him
As at that point I was already becoming disenchanted
And I realize that what enchanted me in the first place was not so much him
No, it was more of my idea of him really
I have high expectations, and I place people on pedestals sometimes
Things they can never fufill
I want a man who can see me have one of my breakdowns, and stay by my side
Someone who isn't afriad of my anger
Who is comfortable talking to me
Who can make me laugh
Who reads
Who enjoys the same things as I do
Who listens to good music
Someone who can shower me with attention without smothering me
Someone who can make me see the beauty within my darkest hours
Someone who can make me smile even when I'm sobbing
Someone who loves me, even with all my faults
Someone who loves me because I have those faults
I want someone who can soothe the savage beast within my soul
Whose smile can melt away even my worst bout of anger
And laugh can make me feel warm inside
And arms make me feel safe, like I'm home
And I realize I'm only seventeen, the probability of me finding someone to fufill all these things is highly unlikely
But it's still what I want
I want it all or nothing
Which is probably why I've never dated much
I have extremely high standards
Song of the Moment:
Asking Too Much by Ani Difranco
I want somebody who sees the pointlessness
And still keeps their purpose in mind
I want somebody who has a tortured soul
Some of the time
I want somebody who will either put out for me
Or put me out of misery
Or maybe just put it all to words
And make me say, you know
I never heard it put that way
Make me say, what did you just say?
I want somebody who can hold my interest
Hold it and never let it fall
Someone who can flatten me with a kiss
That hits like a fist
Or a sentence, that stops me like a brick wall
Because if you hear me talking
Listen to what I’m not saying
If you hear me playing guitar
Listen to what I’m not playing
And don’t ask me to put words
To all the spaces between notes
In fact if you have to ask, forget it
Do and you’ll regret it
I’m tired of being the interesting one
I’m tired of heving fun for two
Just lay yourself on the line
And I might lay myself down by you
But don’t sit behind your eyes
And wait for me to surprise you
I want somebody who can make me
Scream until it’s funny
Give me a run for my money
I want someone who can
Twist me up in knots
Tell me, for the woman who has everything
What have you got?
I want someone who’s not afraid of me
Or anyone else
In other words I want someone
Who’s not afraid of themself
Do you think I’m asking too much?
