In selfish desires to mold
Their existence to your own

an urge
to break free
of illusions,

cage of desires.
There's an urge-
My spirit, 
Soar!

Fluttering kisses
Thudding heartbeats

A flick of her finger, and two desires were dead.

pains silent in your eyes
a road calling

listen to me
big fire is waiting 
desires turn into torture
gently

Soft faint words I trace from your lips

Clouds release winter memories
While gale force winds
Uproot sunshine desires
Like shallow rooted trees
