Desire, attachment, craving From attachment stems desire and craving I am attached to you So therefore I crave your attention It's funny Why do I crave your attention so much What is it about you? Why do I crave your approval Why do I so desperately want you to be proud of me Believe in me See me Why? Is it because I craved this from my father? Do I transfer that unmet need onto you? But what is it about you? You are driven and succesful as my father was And you have a vice just as my father did yet you are different I trust you in a way I never trusted my father How do I slay this need within me? How do I meet it from within? How do I love you without needing something from you? How do I release my desire for you and all that you represent? By stepping into my own power And finally admitting and letting go of my need for my father.
