I demand that you love me,
I command your respect,
I expect you to guard me
from all angry threats.
I order you to worship
on the ground at my feet,
to eternally be there,
never to flee.
I condemn you to serve me,
to hang on each breath.
Committed through life,
joined together in death.

If ever you should leave me
I'd grow stronger,
it's true,
yet my will,
weak,
surrenders,
dependent on you.

Like the rhythm. It's all bang bang bang. Very haughty. Love, Maria.

Taking rather than needing?

Maybe a bit of both...I know people in relationships who are so dependent on their partner that they actually dictate the terms of the relationship...to all extents and purposes THEY appear to be the rock, but in truth it's like a spell of power, an illusion, a hook to guarantee togetherness. Not my idea of a relationship, but each to his/her own, I guess...
