Desire Poem by Kenneth Maswabi

Hold me tight
Inside your heart
Do not let me flow away
Into the hands of temptations
Into the unknown abyss of my selfish desires
My untamed fantasies
Are ever knocking at my door
To free me from you
And run wild with me
But I am afraid
I am not ready to lose your love
And be emptied of you
It is death
To be without you
Like a feather
Unplugged from its wing
I am lost
Without you
Hold me tight
Inside your heart
