No pedestal needed

I don't know about her, but I know about me

I don't need money, trinkets, pretty little benefits

You don't have to have accolades, cars, privilege
I suppose those things are all fine and nice
and I do like them sometimes maybe

But what I really want....
You can take everything away above, everything single thing
and all I really want at the end of the day,
is to be loved,
to be treated with respect,
I want, that if you thought about me at all.... that it was nicely
that in your heart you hold a space for me always, above any other
with my best intentions always in your soul
and that
if you needed to be with another female, male, whatever (non-binary)
that you'd be completely honest before it even started
because you know I'd want to know
and I would do the same for you.  Pedestals would just complicate all love making.... or wait....
