All I Need


What do I need? Do I need gold? Do I need money? Do I need fame?

How will one answer the question that lies in front of ones self? The path of wants and the path of needs. 

How both are very similar but so very different. Would I go to say that I need attention? Or would it be that I want attention?

what I desire is on a road in which will come when it is destined to be but a need is what I can never survive without. 

 

I desire family, but that is a lie because I need family. I need wifi but truthfully, it is only a desire. What are my needs? What is all that I need?

To answer the question, I need life. I need love. I need family. I need food and water.  

 

What at do I truly need?

 

All I need is life. All I need is to survive.
