Passion's Desire

Passion's Desire

A Poem by Dave W.
"

The heart is a weird thing.....

"
How can I be more hungry, 
for a promise to be fulfilled? 

Anxiety is my bread to dine tonight, 
silence is the her drink of choice, sipped slowly, 
distance is the table we are seated at.  

Her still image staring back, 
my messages go unanswered, 
her voice I long to hear, 
"Patience" she told me, 
"Everything will work out" echoes in my head. 

Overthinking is the cup I drink from 

This still room betrays my internal storm, 
my heart races for her, 
her feet sore, 
from running through my mind all day. 

I will embrace the peace of the moment, against my will, 
I will wait because there is no other choice, 
"One day" is the thought that keeps the fire lit,
 Passion's Desire is the name of the café serving us this evening....

Passion is just another name for survival... the human species is very passionate about our survival. We desire it like nothing else (even if we don't know it). Most of us don't understand how that desire has been abstracted. It's ugly how we go about making it appear not ugly en masse. It's not sustainable. I hope it waits to fully collapse until after I die. And don't forget to have a really nice day.
