Want or Need?

What is with a want?
it pushes past a need

why seek the pleading hearts?
become invaluable in deed

don’t want to be needed
don’t need to be wanted
it’s a crisis of identity really
with the difference in the pair
lost in confusion, lost in the air

what is that which separates the two
that which can inform both I and you

it is perhaps this deep truth:

that need suggests require
while wistful want cries desire!
