I Am Desire
I am Desire
I have made some people happy
I have made others sad
Some people cannot handle my power
I am desire-
I am as hot as a ball of fire
I am as bright as a shooting star
I am as small as a grain of sand
I can be as enormous as a mountain- Desire-
Touch me- inhale me- incite me- capture
My essence
Love me- for I am desire-
Some people know what to do with me
Others use me unwisely-
I am yours for the taking
Men want to own me
Women pray for me
Some people embrace me- others-
Spread me across the plains
While others distribute me within the nations- Desire-
I have traveled through time and space- through
Generations and Race
I am older than humanity- older than thought
I have been around forever- I will be here- for eternity
For- I am Desire-
