you never know
what it is that you crave
what it is that you
desire
even when it’s staring you down
your blue eyes watering under its gaze
you could have anyone, anything you
desire
but that just makes it so much harder
you’ve always got what you wanted
which takes away from the beauty of
desire
it all starts to lose meaning
when there’s too much of a good thing
and not enough yearning, not enough
desire.
