Desire

A poem I wrote ages ago.

Desire nailed into the thick air,

Lustrous eyes, delicately rounded.

She watched her straw become distorted in the glass,

Just as if it would.

A heart hungry is a ravenous beast,

That calls to be fed, and yet, not misunderstood.  

Music alleviates silence,

Another pair of eyes she sees,

As they await the modulation of spring.

Hearts beat, distance and length intertwine,

At precisely the right moment.

i do not believe that the primal...demands to much sympathy or consideration for its existence...it is a human imperative...a beast that must be satiated...a beautiful and perfect package...

Really liked this one. I love your style of poetry. Reminds me on one of my poems called wannabee. Love the tone of the poem.
