Desire

A Poem

Photo by Руслан Гамзалиев on Unsplash

My life,
a sinkhole of angst,
contemplating possibilities.

My desire,
a hurricane of emotion,
deluged by sensorial stimulation.

My words,
drifting on an endless sea,
swirling in an eternal maelstrom of discontent.

Lightning strikes,
then subsequent thunder,
but still, I search for the tranquility of the stars.
