I have but, basic needs,
same as any human desires.
There's a difference
between 'necessities' and needs.
The former, are not
what comes to mind,
but the latter.
Needs-
basic needs,
to love and be loved,
to be appreciated, cherished
and cared for,
beyond 'necessities' boundries.
I need these things, to survive this life.
To simply get through, each awakening day.
Love and caring, go far deeper,
than surface smiles.
I need to know,
I am wanted!
Wanted for ME, and not just
for what others need from me.
Its not so much to ask for,
these basic needs,
from those you do for
in the very same ways,
in which you crave...
...and need...
