Perhaps Too Much Poem by Riley Choma

I dont want someone that stays for any part of my body.
I want someone that stays for my mind and soul.
I dont want someone that stays for what they imagine me as.
I want someone that stays for who I am.

I want someone that has effort despite time.
Someone that knows life is about the little things.
I want someone who cares at least half as much about me as I do about them.
Someone that doesn't take anything for granted.


Someone that wants one thing just isnt… My thing.
I want someone with ambition that wants it all.
Someone that feels they own me is just.. All wrong.
I don't want codependency, but independence with occasional company.
Someone stable and strong; happy to have me but not afraid to see me gone.


I want perhaps too much.
Someone that doesn't quite seem to exist.
