Desire
Desire, an ever burning coal within us
awaiting to be fuelled by a lover or
fame or money for others
An unquenchable thirst for touch
and breathless acts of pleasure
Desire, the dreams of devils and angels
A driven force un-yeilding to so many pleas
An urge that can tear us in half
or simply make us whole
Desire the brilliant and dangerous
wishes from the soul...
