My heart desires true love
Someone to kiss me, someone to hug
My heart longs for someone to care
Cure all my pain and despair
My heart desires a kiss so pure
Someone to keep me secure
My heart longs for someone so true
Someone to need me, someone like you

This is me entry for [link] =Dagwanoenyent's contest, the theme is "What the heart desires". So, I didnt just want it to be a random drawing that had nothing to do with the theme its drawn from this photo of her> [link] Since we're friends on here and we talk a lot, I wanted it to have a little symbolism to make it more personal, so the big heart on the necklace represents her and the two small ones represent her love for her boyfriends and her kitty, Ebony and how they all connect together...because they all have that loving connection the heart desires

I had a lot of people that thought I should color the sketch version of this> [link] I decided to remove the hand thought as it just looked a bit awkward in my drawing and ~renutheartist suggested doing it in the black and red, like I used to always do...I thought that was a good idea, especially for this drawing

I hope you all like it
