"Do I want you or Do I need you?"
A question that I pondered upon...
By wanting someone,
it meant that without him/her, you'll be fine with it.
By needing someone,
it meant that you can't make do without him/her.
In life, there are always people that you know you want.
But many times, while we're busy wanting people,
all we ever wanted was the one that we needed.
Yet, we were often blinded by the people we want,
so much that we neglected those we needed.
There were times when we held on,
thinking and hoping that the one we're holding on is the one we needed.
But when it's time to let go,
we still held on.
Have we ever wondered why we have to let go?
Were there problems that set us apart?
Who would be the one that understands and try to salvage this bond between us?
The one that we wanted? Or the one that we needed?
More than often, the ones that are wanted don't know so much about us.
They support us in ways that make us feel comfortable.
That's why we want them.
They are merely just temporal comfort.
But those that we needed, knew us well enough to be there for us.
They know what we needed, not what we wanted.
They are the ones who gives us lasting support.
Then again, how do we know who are those we need and those we want?
This, I can't answer, but rather, try asking yourself how you feel about the person.
Would you be fine without that person around?
Why do you like being with that person?
Hmm.
Thoughts in my mind.
Unheard. Unspoken. Unwanted.
