Can I say "no te quiero perdida" if I mean I don't want to lose you
I'm writing a song. Which seems super hard to do in a foreign language. At least for me. I'm almost done but I need to know if i can use the word "perdida" as described above. Hopefully, because it rhymes with what Im trying to say.

no, you can't, in this case the right word would be "perderte" because "perder" is the verb lose and "te" refers to the subject, in this case is you.
i hope you have my point.

No. I think it doesn't make sense if you want to say "I don't want to lose you". The correct way to say it would be: "No te quiero perder". However you may use that phrase anyway, but it depends what you mean.
For example:
Madre: ¿Planeas salir esta noche?
Hija: Sí, pero no sé el lugar exacto donde debo ir.
Madre: Hmm.. no te quiero perdida.
As you can see "No te quiero perdida" means "I don't want to see you lost this night".
I hope I could help you :)
