My 3 Needs (True Love, Success, Immortality)
To be completely honest I only need 3 things
True love, success and immortality
People often ask me what I wanna be when I’m of age
And all I gotta say is that I want to be whatever’ll get me paid
But of course I’m joking, I won’t do just anything
However I feel my success will ultimately lead to my immortality
And when I say this word, I don’t mean to live forever ‘cause no one can
But I want my memory and last name live on when I’m dead and gone
My success will be based of my willingness on doing one thing
And one thing only, my willingness to put in the hard work necessary
Not to sell my soul, but be able to work hard for the man
Any man, I’m not speaking of just the government
Will I be able to do what’s necessary for me?
At this point I can honestly say….No
I don’t have quite have working mind set just yet
Or the know-how from years of experience
But I’ll get there it’s just a matter of time
Like waitin’ for that fine, aged wine
And if my success and memory tie together what about true love
A woman to take care of, kiss and hug
Honestly, I think of this unknown woman more than anything else
More than death, more than my health, more than any kind of future success
'Cause to me, true love equals happiness…
Or is this just me being naïve?
No one’s really taught me about women besides………
Every month kind of things, and emotional mood swings
Of course I’ve heard stereotypes that women are confusing
But the only confusion I feel is when I’m thinkin’ about myself
Whether or not I’m want to be involved sports, law, or some kind of therapy
My mind is always wandering on what this future woman will look like
How she’ll act; will she be a mother hen type of woman
Just like me, but only a woman
My polar opposite kind of a woman
Will this woman stay true to me or stray?
Will I be able to stay faithful to this woman if things get hard?
Will she be into the arts?
Is this an adventurous woman?
A stay-at-home, eat popcorn and watch movies all day type woman?
Will she be a lazy woman?
Is she a quiet woman?
A passionate woman?
What will her name be?
Will she ever take my last name? (Maybe)
Will I ever find the right woman?
There are so many questions I have for this future woman
Considering the hopeful fact that God will bless me with this woman
Every time I dream about this woman, she’s faceless but I always hear her voice
Her silky voice never changes
My dreams about this woman are hazy, but I can smell and hear everything
But the funny thing about her voice, is that it’s so familiar yet so foreign
The only consistent thing about this dream woman
Her hair never feels the same in my dreams
Her skin tone always changes, yet her personality always stays the same
I know one thing for certain
I don’t want a woman to worship me or tell me I’m the greatest
I only want a woman who’ll love me unconditionally
That’s all I ask
If my future woman is feminine and girly, I’ll gladly accept
If my future woman is tomboyish and boisterous, I’ll never reject
I often ask myself will I be able to make the first move
Or will this future woman beat me to the punch
Will we take things slow, be friends first or jump right in
Will she accept the fact that I want to stay celibate till that fateful day
Will she understand that our future offspring (If God is willing) will lead to my immortality?
Does this future woman ever think of her future man?
The future man that will put this woman on a pedestal
And make her feel like she’s the only woman in existence
I think of this woman constantly
Constantly wondering if this woman will ever be
What I imagined her to be
I wish I had the answers now
But I won’t know now ‘cause there shall be no peeking
Now I won’t know if my memory will live on forever
Or if I’ll be working and living on successfully
But after all this you now know my 3 needs
True love, success, and immortality

And if this poem were to accompany anything musically, it would of course be the beat I mentioned earlier. I'll definitely post a link to it, below.
Constructive critisicm is always welcomed.

May I point out though, the "<nobr></nobr>"s that were left in your poem~>
"Every month kind of things, and emotional <nobr>mood swings</nobr> "
"Will I ever <nobr>find the right</nobr> woman?"
"If <nobr>my future</nobr> woman is feminine and girly, I’ll gladly accept"
