Everything I Don’t Need

No need to pick me up,
Because I can stand up on my own,

No need to cry for me,
Because I am not unfamiliar with tears

No need to soothe my soul,
Because my soul embraces pain,

No need to carry my burdens,
Because I am capable of carrying them myself,

No need to shower me with words,
Because words are often meaningless to me

What I need is a glimpse of truth,
Stolen from light and dark moments,

In those pits and peaks
And everything in between,

All I need is to know
That everything I do not need
Will be given anyway.
