What do I need?


What do I need you ask?

Well I need, water,

and food,

and air,

and the latest and greatest phone,

and indeed to lose weight,

I need to have designer clothes

and new shoes,

I need money and to have everyone know who i am

that is what I need.

but,

if you ask what I need to be happy,

then my answer is pretty simple 

I don't need a new phone,

or designer clothes and new shoes

and I don't need lots of money or to be famous,

all I need to be happy is love,

all I need is to have my friends

and family, and all the people that i meet

to share love because 

love is all I need
