Taking hold of me
from dawn to dusk
and dusk to dawn
in blooms and flush
desires never die
unconsciously they lie
flourishing like weeds
causing untold miseries
spinning concentric webs
thread by thread
entangling and breaking, entangling again
futile is to impede
amorphous kindling aspirations
setting up wildly like a storm
rooting deep to the deepest
outgrowing the tallest of trees
I fight and I resist
those arrays of emotions
but there is no holding them
futile is to impede
neither meaningful words
nor soulful talks
can subdue those temptations
and futile is to impede....
Beautifully penned :) :) This was just exactly what I had in my mind :)

ReplyDeletedesires never die
ReplyDeleteunconsciously they lie
Kill sweet desire, faith may numb the trial, but can you run all your life. Kill sweet desire, truth will make a liar, you can run but not hide

Nice poem You string together words beautifully. I liked the core around which the poem revolves. The mystery of how to keep a check on desire and temptation still eludes us.
ReplyDeletei like this.. this is my first time at your blog and I'm impressed with the way you play with words.
