Existence of the Perfect Dream
All I can ask for is love
The perfect dream
To feel the gentle lips of another
To feel so much it hurts inside
Love is too difficult to capture, it seems
And though some wish for me
To pretend, to live in false emotions
It cannot be, It cannot be
I criticize, I analyze
I am not easy to please
Am I to be my own demise?
At least that of my perfect dream?
I want so much
But no one wishes to give
Those who do
Have unwelcomed gifts
I cannot love you
If I don't like you
To embark on a journey that has no promise
Would end in pain I don't want to feel
Love is more complicated than envisioned
It has no true beginning
There is unlimited end
But will have neither if it cannot be found
I haven't found my dream
Perhaps I need to close my eyes
And then I'll feel those tender lips
And feel a lover's heart ache
I wish it to be,
I need it to be.

Analyzing
In my mind, this stanza said it all...
"I criticize, I analyze,
I am not easy to please,
Am I to be my own demise?
At least that of my perfect dream."
Being a Capricorn, I tend to over-analyze things. Not sure what your sign is, but I've been criticized for looking too deeply into things that are said to me...and perhaps reading more into what is there than the person wishes to reveal.
Perhaps it has a lot to do with the writer in me that over-analyzes every detail. Which could easily be my own demise.
Like you, I am not easy to please...as I wish only for the truth. But when the truth is hidden, I have to ask why?
How strange...
Oddly enough, I too am a capricorn. One of the reasons I'm a winter rose =]. Perhaps that is why we are similarly analytical. The truth is a lovely thing, and I find it very frustrating that it is so difficult to uncover. It's comforting to know that I'm not alone in my high expectations =]
To us! Those who are not easy to please and expect the best!
