Selfless Needs
all choices i make
the people i meet
tell me the truth
the way i feel
choosing them
brings feelings i fear
choosing me
brings feelings unknown
choosing both
brings feelings i love
what if
in choosing them
i say what i think they wanna hear
i do what i think they wanna see
ain’t i the pleaser of our wants?
i hope they think what fits my thoughts
i hope they feel what fits my feelings
but darling,
this feels, no good
aren’t selfless wants selfish wants?
what if
in choosing me
i say what feels good but they don’t wanna hear
i do what feels good but they don’t wanna see
not pleasing our wants
ain’t i the fulfiller of our needs?
i know we think what brings clearing to both
i know we feel what brings healing to both
oh darling,
this feels good
aren’t selfish needs selfless needs?
but what if
in choosing both
i say what we’re both open to hear
i do what we’re both open to see
not pleasing our wants
only fulfilling our needs
shipping hormones of feel good now
ain’t we the transformers of our wants n’ needs?
i feel we think thoughts unknown
i feel we feel feelings of love
darling,
this feels good,
damn good indeed
selfless to selfish
and back to selfless
aren’t selfless needs what we need?
what if
to choose them
i choose selfish selflessness
to choose me
i choose selfless selfishness
to choose both
i choose selfless selflessness
history says,
perspectives bring dark to light
selfless to selfish
and back to selfless
its okay, its all okay
you’ve done no wrong
its all okay
lets make a choice,
selfless or selfish?
needs or wants?
love or fear?
you can’t go wrong.
its okay, its all okay
just feel the truth,
love is here at any choice.
