To Be Cherished

I'm not needing to be told, I should have someone in my life... Who will appreciate me for who I am. I'm not needing to be told that at all. I'm just not ready to share my time, Trying to convince someone... I am a treasure, To be cherished for the rest of their life. And I have not found a single person, Prepared to believe it! I even had someone in my life, Trying to feed me deceit to nourish my needs. 'Don't you think your perception of yourself, Is a bit conceited? ' Not at all. If I am going to share my life with anyone... And accept their imperfections? They best be prepared for my own to be exposed. And then again, I have old fashion values. There is something about being treated with respect, That turns me on.
