Trying To Grasp the Wind

Trying To Grasp The wind.
.
My hearts long for desiring
Mat never transpire to be
But dwells in within 
The very deepest part of me
For what I want is like the sweetest tasty apple
Always there so close yet out of my reach
For I am hungry for love
And without the lavish feast
.
I often wonder what did I do wrong
My natural urges beyond my control
And so ever strong
To never see my first born
Look up and smile at me
Is like a dagger I feel so painfully
But never see
.
To never have a love so strong 
As a loving sweetheart
Almost seems a sin
I’m trying to reach for the impossible
But foolishly
Trying to grasp the wind.

Everyone deserves to be loved and indulged in the sweetness of love. Keep your heart open always for she might just sneak in and stay... Best wishes, my friend :)
