I Need You

“Need”

Has always seemed like

A huge burden 

Needing someone and being needed

Both sound equally as dreadful

The feeling of “need” has the

Tendency to feel like a

Dagger in my stomach

(A psychological issue I deal with in depth)

I was listening to Louise Hay

On the YouTube last week

And I heard her say something

Along the lines of:

It’s beautiful for someone to need you, such

A privilege for someone to depend on you

Those words ddidn't really hit

My consciousness until a couple

Of days later and when they did

I ccouldn't believe the comfort

I found in them

I truly felt overwhelmed with joy

I found it amazing that I had never
Seen "need" as anything else but grief
I found it even more amazing that
I had come across a different
Understanding of need

Needing and need is a beautiful privilege

So profound
