What we want and what we need

are two different things

Things with purpose,

Oftan striving towards a goal,

Things that help us reach said goal

With purpose we make.

But with purpose comes needs,

Things that are more important than others

More difficult.

We tend to avoid them

Waste the day away at things that are numbing,

Without purpose

unimportant.

Do we need it?

Do we want it?

Questions asked in futility

For we already know them,

Yet we avoid them.

Our true purpose hidden

In a cloud of doubt
