Desire Is Not NeedA Poem by H.L. Cerveise
There are so many words to describe something you feel. I see too many meanings of the same words. At times, I wonder does this really matter? What differences does it make picking between two words. Out in the murky three-dimensional void a voice softly says, Yes, there is a difference and that means everything.
Deep down, a voice cries out, you know that is right. I do not need anyone; I can and do exist without another. The chaotic maelstrom within is mine and mine alone. It pulsates and surges around my yin and yang cores. I should shun being required or needing anyone. Down that path only darkness and separation lay.
Ah, as defined, they are the same I read in black and white. However, I know there are only misty grays around me. In every blistering truth, there is deep inside a lie. That every bold-faced lie holds some truth. Again, that sweet voice softly echoes amidst the raging winds, Only halfway do I sense you, yet your thoughts weigh upon me.
I want to be desired, I yearn to be with another. To have someone to crave me as much as I do them. As I reach out in soul, body and spirit, I meet you. I feel you stretching towards me with the same forces. When we merge, despite our different needs, we are satisfied. Yes, I muse; this is what I long for, is this wrong?
