Like separated parents who are being played by a child

I will provide anything and everything

I only want what’s best

But maybe what’s best is to put it to rest

Remember there is a difference between

What you need and what you want,

What is required and what is desired,

Never let these things call each other by the same name

Or they will blend together

Become ordinary and much the same

Life will become bland

With handfuls of tasks

To do lists and subjects all masked

Under the façade of need

Like a book with no words,

There won’t be a point,

Yes there is a spine, binding

And even pages

But you lack passion,

There’s no reverence for what is sacred

And your story will be read
