Privation

Yearning your hands running through my body, Exploring the map as its given to you. Our destination is clear But your intentions are a blur. Frigid night that withholds the affability of your embrace, While I sit under the dark skies awaiting consideration. I look from side to side attempting to locate the inner you But in the process I encounter my biggest mistake. To look for something that is not in existence anymore; Running through a maze with paths that lead to nowhere. Idiotic of me to believe this was real; Seeing through a mirage with aspiration as my weapon.

too often we let our desires....get in the way of what the heart requires....yielding only pain, negativity and stress....because lust can never see past the flesh....great work rahima, there are so many who need to read this....;)
