Wish I Knew

Ash

 

The last few days I have realized something

That

What I want

What I need

What I deserve

Are all three different things

Those three things

Don’t align at all

What I want is my drug

Something that I know is poison to me

But I crave so much

Even if it breaks me

Hurts me

Leaves me in pieces

I can’t stop craving it

And at the end of it all

I don’t even know if that is what I really want

What I need is

Answers

Stability

Respect

Understanding

A connection…

What I deserve

Someone that cherishes me and all I am worth

Someone that spoils me

Someone that will go to the end of the earth for me

To be happy

To be excepted for me and all my flaws

I look around

As the world doesn’t stop spinning

And I honestly don’t know

I don’t know what I want

I don’t know who I am

I know what people want from me

What they think is best for me

What they think I should be

What they think I should do

But

How do I know?

How do I find out what I WANT

What is right for ME

Will I ever figure it out?

Or will I go through life feeling lost

Hopeless

Hurt

Confused
