What do i need, or
What can't you live without?
Air would be obvious, for without it we'd die.
but for others a phone, a person, or last friday night's high.
Do you want, or do you need? See,that is the key
The key to unlock the truth inside of me.
No need for materialistic things, phones, laptops, or a shiny house key,
for the one thing i need is inside of me.
Inside of my soul, inside of my heart
filling my mind, inspiring art.
Comforting me,when everything was black,
knees to my chest, the wall against my back.
It helps to just get rid of it all ,
no wanting to jump off the edge, no more room to fall
No more Feeling hopeless, alone, and trapped
No blanket of insecurities to be inside, tightly wrapped.
What is the thing i can't live without?
The thing that gives me a reason to be happy and to shout.
To help escape to a world that bends at my will,
Where the water will ripple, and never be still.
The one thing you need, to lift you up, to get you through any activity,
Is one thing we all possess, that thing is our creativity.
