Nikusuiii in Poetry & Free Verse

Needed

I love being needed

Even when it hurts

And I will be there forever

If there’s someone who needs me

I need to be needed

I want to be loved

But craving me is just the same

Fixing on me is just the same

I hate being needed

You don’t have to know me

And you don’t have to care

Just ask for help and I’ll never leave

I regret being needed

Never knowing what I want

Not caring enough to feel for myself

Just enough cares for everyone else

I want to be needed

Because if not, what will I ever be?

If it helps me escape my own self doubt

I think that it’s enough for me.
