Notes About The Poem

Wants and Needs

There is this fellowship between wants and needs.
You feel the weight, anticipating this price to decrease. 
As you realize this price may not come down,
It becomes clear, this is not going to be yours.
This becomes more heartfelt when you give this up.
It's something you've always wanted, almost within reach.
