21 Things I Want in a Lover

Do you derive joy when someone else succeeds?
Do you not play dirty when engaged in competition?
Do you have a big intellectual capacity but know
That it alone does not equate wisdom?
Do you see everything as an illusion?
But enjoy it even though you are not of it?
Are you both masculine and feminine?politically aware?
And don't believe in capital punishment?

These are 21 things that I want in a lover
Not necessarily needs but qualities that I prefer

Do you derive joy from diving in and seeing that
Loving someone can actually feel like freedom?
are you funny?
la self-deprecating? like adventure?
and have many formed opinions?

These are 21 things that I want in a lover
Not necessarily needs but qualities that I prefer
I figure I can describe it since I have a choice
in the matter
These are 21 things I choose to choose in a lover

I'm in no hurry I could wait forever
I'm in no rush cuz I like being solo
There are no worries and certainly no pressure
in the meantime
I'll live like there's no tomorrow

Are you uninhibited in bed? more than three times
a week?
Up for being experimental? are you athletic?
Are you thriving in a job that helps your brother?
are you not addicted?

...curious and communicative...

p.s. if we chose our lovers from a checklist would they still be lovers full of spontaneity, of little surprises, of sudden surges of emotion?

no karan.
if we chose our lovers from a checklist,spontaneity would be one of the listed characteristics. :p
that said,
i don't think its posible to fall in love off a checklist. then it wouldn't be falling in love. it would be looking for love and finding it.like shopping of your grocery list in a supermarket.
too unmagical for me.

ahh magical.
yes, i know how that hits the right chord with you.. :)
also, its magical to fall in love with someone (like you) who's magically in love. lol. its like being part of a narnia love story where you always get the girl.

i know what you mean by wanting someone who's both masculine and feminine.not limited by either. sensitive to both. prone to both. that open in perception and existence.as perfect. as imperfect.
intellectual capacity, i know, is a big thing with you. that search for someone who's intelligent without airs. with just enough self-respect. with a softened sort of mental sharpness.[this "you", btw is for m. k, you don't have the primary requisite for this section of our discusioc: a brain. so just wait till we change the topic.]
magical falling in love...
its always magical when it happens, isnt it? would we want so badly to find "the" love if it weren't magical? afterall, to find in one person a friend, a lover, a soulmate, a guide, a philosopher, a fellow traveller- is this nothing but magical?

yes, it is. but only you can always word things in ways that are perpetually accurate and surprising. going for lunch. will cu on msn in 5.
