Wants and Needs


BY CAROLE NICHOLS


There is such a restlessness inside
That I try so very hard to hide.
I know that I should just let go,
But that's difficult to do, you know?

You answer such a need in me,
That right now I cannot see
A time when I would be happy
With you as just a memory.

I have no wants when I'm with you;
You know exacly what to do.
You make my heart and body soar;
You give me all and then some more.

You take care of my every need,
In thought as well as in deed;
You are my friend and my lover,
And right now I don't want another.

Is it so wrong to feel this way?
To enjoy so much these games we play?
Our wants and needs are just the same;
Wants and needs too wild to tame.

  1. And to think that my Daddy fought and almost died for this.

    Then he finally died of lung cancer.

    Yet he lived long enough to hold his grand daughter, finally.

    Sure did take a long time.

    Yet, multiplication was a blessing.

    I'd held back so long, knowing there were plenty enough babies here, already on this earth.

    But, just one was more than enough.

    Hi carole...love that song this time of year, you know the one with the bells.

    My grandma was almost 50 years younger than her husband, and she ran a 'boarding house' and she died one year to the day, exactly the same day a year later...

    My grandpa was 99 years old...and he sure was feisty.

    He loved music.

  2. Who's responsible for the 'artwork' here?
    It's absolutely 'breath taking,' marvelous, lovely, beautiful, brilliant...

    Dear Carole,
    Whatever happened to BamaCat? Seems so quite and lonely there on 'that site.'

    I was just starting to open my eyes, or something, when suddenly...

  3. Quiet...not lonely.

    If you thought about sex while you were participating, and the aftermath, I don't think there would be a problem with over population, or for that matter much of anything else.

    That's why it's best all by yourself, and just imagine loneliness is just something manufactured in your brain that was once-upon-a-time useful for proliferation...

    Might be nice just to love yourself.

    Might be hard at first, but believe me it gets easier....practice makes perfect.

    Just ask 'Alice.'
