Desire Is Not Need

Desire Is Not Need

A Poem by H.L. Cerveise

Desire Is Not Need


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?

No it isnt wrong
We all want that
Someone to lose it for us
we want that room burning desire
that beautiful pull ......
