The idea of you is everything that I want, but a want is not a need.
A want is a happiness that only lasts for a moment.
A moment that only lasts hours, minutes or seconds.
It is never considered to be long lasting.
The insects are at peace.
Living their lives essentially pleased.
It doesn't take much to fulfill their needs.
How are they so strong, and I so weak?
I feel so scared and weak.
I look at you and I see so much you have hidden from others and the world.All your pain, the untold fears, the scars and even the thought of deathhas plagued your mind once upon a time.I speak to you looking in your eyes,
I don’t want to be quiet anymore,
(that really bothers me.)
I want to fill the silences and make people smile.
I don’t want to be lost anymore.
We live in a world
Where we take so much.
We need more, more, more.
Always more. Never enough.
They say it's enough,
But is it really?
Can we ever be satisfied?
Do we own our possessions,
"You are so young, you have so much time"
Never mixed well with
"Life is short."
So I never poured my time in a hot bucket
Sitting in the sun as it evaporates into the last place
I wanted it to go--
Pen. Paper.
Thoughts. Words. Feelings.
Unfinished trains of thought.
Wants. Needs. Desires. Plans.
All lie within the space between
My poetry and me.
She with the lion's mane-
She with her head in the clouds
had always been one to suppress her thoughts
in hopes to just fade in the crowds.
As she grew, as she learned
Maslow's Hierarchy is a pyramid of needs
It explains everything a human being needs in their life
in order to live a full, healthy life
To help fully understand the severity of these things,
think of us as a flower
All I need
Is a sweet summer breeze
A melody singing in my head
A beat flowing through my body
Lyrics both clean and naughty
Neverending even in bed
A rhythm flows through me
I have this friend that I am useless without.
I know, I know,
Friends are not meant to last forever.
But this one sorta does.
Stop me if you’ve heard this before,
girl
meets boy
learns to love.
You never learn to love
yourself
In order to survive,
You need love,
Water,
Shelter,
Food.
But what if you don't have that?
What if you're
stranded
on an island?
You'd need to make with what you got.
I need college cash (break)
And for that, I need scholarships (break)
Please give me money
What is it to need something?
Some people describe it as what you need to be happy.
Others so that your heart keeps drumming.
I, however, describe it as intangible.
What I need may also be what I want
Is it not,
the days we look up and ask for
what we want,
the days we beg for the
thing that taunts,
a common ideal we flaunt?
But what if,
all alone,
the things we want aren't
Is it really love?
Or is it desperation and loneliness
possibly?
Hearts are so...
Minds are:
Numb.
Baraged.
Attacked.
Is it really love?
Happiness?
You know I wrote a whole poem not more than two seconds ago
what a shame I let it go
i wish I could rewrite it
If I could drink my tears, I’d no longer be thirsty.
If they would quench the fire, I’d no longer be burning.
If they would wash away the worms, I’d no longer be hurting.
happiness
is a scary thing.
it can be taken
so easily,
ripped away
from your grasp,
snatched away
from your clutch
when you’re already
so comfortable,
so accustomed.
There are some days
when all I see is the color grey.
Full of smoke, full of smog
Full of emptiness in the world that's sorrounded with disgusting fog.
You feel it, so do I
I have a want inside meNot for anything in particularJust a want, a need, eating away inside me
The problem is that people can only speak with oneMouth. Most people will only listen to a person a single time.
