Men always desire for women and wealth,
Women desire men, family and wealth,
Desire only seems to be fulfillment postponed,
It is the dream of the lust in our hearts adored.
The fire of desires ravages in our minds,
The flames seem to erupt scorching the entire universe,
The desires have no quenching in sight,
The waves of desires cascade endlessly on the shores of life.
Desire and enjoy not the things we have,
Always looking forward to things we don't have,
Is it the lust or greed in our soul?
Or is it a dream or an endless lifelong goal?
The lack of desire, I may not desire,
The life will be dull, the dreams will be void,
The quench of my desire, I may admire,
Life will be full; happiness will be achieved.
I thought I had all I needed,
I rested on my oar,
I thought all had been mended,
I had everything to soar.
Naïve and inexperienced I was,
Someone had to put me through,
It was a different battlefield and the wars,
Were not what I thought was true.
The instructions came at the eleventh hour,
Nothing much to salvage,
I couldn’t be pulled up the tower,
I had caused permeable damage.
I fought to get back on my feet,
All was to no avail,
There were a plethora of requirements to meet,
I ran but didn’t entirely prevail.
I have laboured for others,
Gave all my time and left my desires,
Opportunities came but like toddlers,
I didn’t see the current flowing through the wires.
I'm on a full-scale run,
Before the door closes on my turn.

L. Milton Hankins.
She ponders how this anxiety will manifest
As she watches him ignore her every request
She feels unseen and unheard by his deflection
Triggers are thrown in every direction
He needs more time to process this feeling
The message she sent leaves him reeling
He’s overwhelmed by her incessant reflection
Triggers are thrown in every direction
She opens her reels and there she sees
He gives out adoration to others with ease
This hurts her core wound of rejection
Triggers are thrown in every direction
He won’t give her his time or intent
His independence is sacred to the highest extent
He’s a stubborn bachelor who refuses inflection
Triggers are thrown in every direction
She’s open and honest and has strong emotion
Her desires and fantasies perceived such a notion
That relations with him could be perfection
Triggers are thrown in every direction
His vulnerability shrinks into tiny vague pieces
As his unruly fear of closeness with her increases
He puts up a wall of resistance for protection
Triggers are thrown in every direction
She’s aware of his changes and patterns
So she earnestly studies his actions and learns
She sees him clearly through his disconnection
Triggers are thrown in every direction
He’s mastered the art of compartmentalization
This he learned as a child of emotional desertion
Leaving a core wound of shame, lacking affection
Triggers are thrown in every direction
She’s hot for him and seeks his attention
But her moves are met by his calm apprehension
When he touches her curves, there is no objection
Triggers are thrown in every direction
He’s terrified to advance the romance
He’s better suited to practice avoidance
She’s too real and he feels the connection
Triggers are thrown in every direction
Your intentions follow you. The stuff you're intending today is not going
to show up today, for it is new. It's going to show up in days, weeks, months and sometimes years on down the road, remove the worrisome load.
Being successful in the Entrepreneurial world and making the Law of Attraction work for you, is a lifestyle, not a 1-2-3 formula for instant manifestation that is true.
Every day is a new act creation, and your manifestations will show up in multiple ways. When your desires show up, your manifestation arrival will seem natural, normal and expected in so many ways.
Probably not that all exciting; this is normal because you have matured to the point that you can manifest the dreams you longed for, put them in writing.
Rome wasn’t built in a day, a famous saying. Take time to see each new level as a new path opens for you to move forward with grace and appreciation.
When we are grateful for the small things in life; that is when the bigger manifestations arrive without strife.
Understand this and you're halfway there. Relax and enjoy your accomplishments as well as the journey with loving care.
Have fun with it and embrace your adventure!
If the anchorage of the wayward mind is unsteady
Unbound to the righteous roots of sanctified soul
In the dislodging thrust of the upwelling desires
The untamed instincts rush wild on sordid trail.
The unbridled mind turns into predator wolf
Breaks away from the shackles of virtuous sanity
Chases the prey on the track made by brutal power
The basic instincts morph into entities base and virile.
You rode the wolf on covert pathway to consume me
Diverted from the course shown by moral compass
I struggled in shame for long to set myself free
Became a mute victim of your feral impulse.
When time took me out of the vortex of vicious storm
Breaking me down into discarded heap of wreckage
I wondered if the feeling of guilt dawned on you
hearing the conscience echo the voice of God.

I have lived under towering skies, in the shadow of cold, silent laws,
Never bowing beneath their absolute powers and their flaws,
I sought not the blazing storms in their crystal goblets of might,
For they feed on our turmoil, our ancestral plight.
Authority, a heavy phantom, hidden control in the shade,
A player on the world’s stage, a game of masks cleverly laid,
It must be mocked, like a magician who hides his trick from view,
Deceived and evaded like a river changing its course anew.
If peace flows in your veins like a gentle river of living silver,
Let it settle in your soul like morning dew on a tender shiver,
If love burns in your heart like a fire lit in the night,
Live it like an echo of falling stars, whispering light.
If you believe in all the winds, like the breeze through the wheat field,
Live freely and fearlessly, like a river that will not yield,
For you may end up contradicting yourself, a shadow on time’s wall,
If you wish to change the world, start with yourself, heed the call.
Just as the ocean shapes the rocks with patience and time’s grace,
Let time be your ally, find your strength, embrace your place,
Dance with shadows, sing with the echo of the high and solemn mount,
Laugh with the stars in the endless night, shine like a lighthouse to count.
This is the art of living outside the law, without losing your path in the run,
Be the protagonist of your dreams, sculptor of your fate, heart of the sun,
A traveler in search of self, on the eternal road to becoming,
Painting your dreams on the morning sky, with desires brightly humming.
The existence of ego depends on thought,
a magical illusion conjured by mind,
web of incessant motion in which we’re caught
but if we drop desires and leave fears behind,
in the void of silence we become self-taught,
no longer floundering about as though blind.
Attuned with the soft pulsations of our heart,
in restful watchfulness God search we jump start.
As an actor in the dream we’ve manifest,
we take as real, the domain created,
the dream ending only when thought comes to rest,
which occurs when we’re not by desires baited,
that then ambling through life in light hearted jest,
the truth of Self is by heart validated.
When thought flow stops, we are then dehypnotized
whence truth of our true being is realised.

I saw that look in your eyes
staring back at me, reading my thoughts,
sensing what I felt, aching to erase and fill my loneliness.
I felt your gentle brush up against my skin,
pressing a feeling of warmth and strength
hot, throbbing, burning to posses me – no need – I was yours.
To be near you was all I asked,
to feel your breath against my cheek,
to touch your hand, your arm,
to kiss your lips, to hold you close ,
to wrap myself within your very being.
The feelings are not easy to forget so touchable and real,
forever in my mind and dreams and forever part of me -
I am yours over and over and over again.
I ask no promises of you other than that you were here,
with no escape from this blinding passion,
no release from the pleasure and joy of your sweet embrace.
I am emptied of you now, lost to my innocence,
drifted away from our encounters, trying to forget you
my dreams, desires and need
but memories and images of us are imprinted still
like notches on a gun, I am marked.
Say you’re not the one, tell me a lie
you know I once believed everything you said
it always was your way, your time, your leaving
is it my turn to do the hurting now?
It’s over!
All that's left
is
the mind's affairs.
I met a Muslim family living down the road,
And I thought they’d be different in every kind of way.
But in the mornings they just wake up, get dressed,
Feed the cat, and they do this every single day.
Beside them lives a retired Jewish couple, two cars and a dog,
Their son had moved across town.
Their son moved in with an African woman
Who wears her kaftan, and head dress with a gown.
And the family run shop down the corner,
With the friendly Asian guy always ready for a chat.
That’s where I met the Brazilian theatre performer,
And she invited me to her show called “Acrobat”.
At the gig I sat beside an Egyptian guy,
He was so in awe just like he was holding his new born.
He was there with his French lover,
And we all talked and laughed and shared some popcorn.
It turns out everyone I met in life from every cultural hub,
Has the same desires, wants and needs.
It’s the politicians spreading hate and fear to exclude,
And regular folk planting the inclusive seeds.
