The Big Bad Wolf On A Two Dimensional Teeter Totter

Please, I need more than a
Construction Paper Boy.
I know origami,
Specific folds,
Have kept you from being blown over just yet.
But I'm no slight breeze,
I'm a gust of wind,
Accounted for toppling every building,
Whipping every strand of hair,
A tearing away every loose ascot.
I need more than a
Two Dimensional Boy.
I know that the Disney animations
Have glorified you, and your easily foiled plot, for so long.
But I'm over the Rated: PG,
I've been sitting in the cinema
For a thousand ages, and I would wait a thousand more,
But why am I wearing the 3-D glasses, that only tint my sight red and blue,
If this is a romance?
I need more than a
Cardboard Cutout Boy
I know that you can stand on your own,
But I want more than a teeter totter relationship,
Held up by your cardboard crutch.
Because as soon as heavy baggage
That accompanies any traveler,
Is bumped into you,
Over you will fall,
And once more I'll have to pick you up and dust you off and try again.
I need that
Concrete Jungle type of love.
Where permanence is the typical,
Where no big bad wolves can huff and puff and make a difference.
Because I need a castle,
Fortress,
City,
Kingdom,
Empire,
Filled with certainty, with adventure, with passion, with love.
