Who needs love?!

Who needs love when you can get sex, free of commitment or fake promises
Who needs someone to go out with; when you enjoy your own company
Who needs someone to take you out for dinner when you can treat yourself anytime you want
I don't need someone to make me feel good when I can pamper myself!

I don't have to wait for anyone to accompany me for a movie
No scope for disappointment when a promise is forgotten
No one gets enough power on you to take you for granted
No one gets priority over yourself, your family and your dreams

But do we not need a partner to share it all with?
Someone you can share a laugh with, share your silence with
Someone who makes your success worthwhile and praises you for your achievements
Someone who is as happy for you as you are, for yourself

That someone gives a meaning to your smile
Gives you a reason to come back home to
Does that mean that love is selfless?
If that's so, we can never find love in this mean selfish world

Do we really have to be selfless to feel purity of one's being?
Can't we be with someone while keeping our Self intact!
Maintain the dignity we grew up with and what we aspired for
Have what we need and give what's needed, without any compromises

Aren't we all selfish but still looking for That selfless love
I don't know what it takes to find that someone
But if and when I find it, I'll nurture and worship it
Will do all in my capacity to make it a mutual affair, in all RESPECTs!!
