Needs by Shelly Wiseberg
Keep busy
Thinking less
Emotionally numb
Feeling suppressed
From unhappiness
Going through motions
To please other people
Empty spaces filled with others
Loving mothers crying alone
In quiet corners
Seeking cover
Comforting child within
Same old story
Feeling immune
Kept on the side
Stored in vacuum
Nowhere to hide
Routine in broken record
From wants and needs
Just to please without release
Picture perfect scenario
With a frozen smile
Lonely in heart
Deep inside turmoil boils
Brewing beneath
Ready for explosion from the heat
Of denial
