Need you to need me

October 16, 2020 by Russell Wardlow Leave a Comment

I just want to feel useful

like I need it

I have this bottomless desire to just be able to do anything

to constantly be of service

or I feel like I’ve bottomed out

I need to be needed

I need you to need me

need me please

please, need me
