Need: A word defined by many


Need

A word defined by many sentences

but most often, it is said as

"something you can't live without"

But for me,

Needing isn't what I can't live without

It is what I need

to live happily.

My need

along with many others

are soundwaves that break silences

and fears

just by stating a few simple words

And mixing tones and chords,

putting my inner thoughts into words

and giving me a passion

and a reason to breathe.

The most beautiful thing in the universe

according to many

 

Music.
