Mystery of Desire

A Poem by Dave W.

The heart is a mysterious place to travel......

Mystery of desire's rhythm,

deep caverns scoured and searched.

Perilous rivers crest the banks,

"Ford through" calls the heart.

Veil of darkness hides futures light.

Passion's risk has a hand out stretched.

Eye's allure, enrapture, and grasps, a willing soul,

Beauty you have won,

angelic timbre strums the souls chords.

That silken touch,

that bewitching stare.

What is this presence felt?

What is her fragrance?

I am born anew,

I am transformed,

the old has passed away,

I am obliterated in her light,

I am illuminated with revelation,

I answer destiny's call...

Emotionally powerful words. An event that led to a transformation. The crumbling of an old order. The start of something new. Passion alone can do that. Loved it.

"Veil of darkness hides futures light."
~ A very beautiful line.

Obliterated but so happy, I guess. We wanted to give in. I'm trying to get my writing together after so long and here is how I want to write, just like you.

WOW! I never thought I'd hear "Desire" from those lips....This is a beautiful enlightenment from you. (I looked up Destinies call...Here's what I found: AI Overview

The correct phrase is "destiny's call" - the possessive form "destiny's" is used before "call" as it refers to a single destiny, not multiple destinies. *But. of course, it's "your" beauty to behold..and whatever.) Congrats on your new love, Dave. Enjoy those precious moments. G.
