Wants and Needs
I’m incapable of loving you to pieces
when every piece needs a reason
I can’t tell you what I love about you
Because what if what I love about you is something you don’t love about yourself
Then you turn around and say “oh that’s it?”
Wanting me to kiss your invisible bruises
Making me feel like what I’m doing for you isn’t enough
Or like I’m not doing my due diligence as your partner
Trust me I want to say much more to you
But if it’s not going to make you happy why say much
I’m trying my hardest here
I’m pushing your favorite bolder up a hill
Trying to surprise you when I get to the top
I’m giving you what you want but not what you need
And you couldn’t care less because you think what you want is what you need
