Love and Tenderness

What do I look for in life?
Tender talks, tender moments, warm embraces, friendly talks
Why do these simple things elude me?
Are they too much to ask?
Am I expecting too much?
Please tell me if I expect the impossible
I think I expect normal things from life
A little caring and sharing
Is it too much to give?
Somebody, please speak up
Please tell me why can't I have engaging conversations with friends
And be treated as a normal person
The inner loneliness inside me eats me up
I look for warmth, love, friendship, support
These things don't cost a thing
They are free like all good things in life
Yet they elude me
Goals are there, pathways are there but if I don't get support
I don't get love, how do I move on?
Am I begging?
No, I think not
Just pouring my heart out in a white sheet of paper.
All I seek is acceptance as a normal individual
Someone who wants a man to love me for what I am
And not for my body parts
Offer me tenderness, love, affection and not erotica
Tell me if I am seeking the ethereal
Am I asking too much?
Love me as a friend, lover and give me love and affection.
