Unfulfilled

Desire burns within me,
A fire that never dies,
I try to quench it,
But it only multiplies.
I crave for satisfaction,
But it always eludes me,
I seek it in the flesh,
But true fulfillment,
I cannot see.
I am a slave to my lust,
Trapped in a cycle of need,
I fear I will never find peace,
And my addiction will always lead.
I long for something more,
A deeper connection, a higher love,
But for now, I am lost,
In a sea of confusion and lust.
Oh, how I yearn to be free,
From this prison of my own making,
To find true joy and fulfillment,
And leave behind this soul-shaking.

PoetryCrying a river full
I’m crying a river full of my pilling tears,I’m still enduring the pain,Yet I don’t know I’ll endure it until when…I think, maybe it will passYet I also believe it can even be for a lifetime.
