just for me
the question you ask me is "What is all I need?" and the quesion i respond back
with is "What is, all I need?"
no it isn't money honestly.
I don't need anything to
feed my eternal greed. That is not for me. That is not me.
It isn't fame. I'm not the type.
no i am not the type to sit in a interview with a fake plastic smile on my molten
flesh covered face and laugh at all the bad jokes of a host from some late night
talk show.
You see because the plastic will melt just like the core of me when i
break down from sensory overload. Just like any anxiey stricken person would
I am too anxious
Too cautious
Too aware
too nauseous
too afraid
for that to be me so that means that that. that is not what i need.
I'm sure what i need is for someone to love me
not who i pretend to be
but the person who is actually flying around free
inside of me of course tied up would a leash
or maybe a noose.
who knows.
but i want someone to see me
too see broken little me
and say i can deal with this
and love me
that is all i need
and its disgusting that i feel the need
to plead and plead on my knees until they bleed
because blood shed is nothing to me
of course someone to love me
is all i need.
