Desire

Feb 19 '05

The Bottom Line ~~~~~~~~~~

If you've ever desired someone that you didn't particularly want to desire you can understand the competing emotions within this poem.

Desire
Debra Pace

The flame flickers like
a candle in the night.

For just a moment
the world stands still.

Breathing is difficult,
my chest is tight.

I try to express
the way that I feel.

Soft music lingers
in the air.

I long for your hands
and their gentle touch.

I feel your fingers move
through my hair.

How can I need someone
this much?
