I pride myself on my lack of need.
I’ve always taken care of myself.

Take what I want and give what I can.
Leave them wanting more.

But never losing myself.
Always holding back.

Never allowing myself to need.
I can want but never ever need.

I can handle the flame of want.
But not the fire of need.
