Desire V Maybe Poem by Vanessa Hughes

Desire V Maybe

Rating: 5.0


If you eat, dream, sleep someone
And desire gets out of hand
The thoughts running round your head
Are more than you can stand

You can go into a maybe world
Where desire becomes less tense
Desire then let it go
Cos maybe's your defence

Maybe it will happen
If it's meant to be
But living in a wanting world
Stops you being free

Desire takes you over
Maybe lets it go
If it's gonna happen
You will surely know

So the moral of this tale is
Acknowledge, then leave to see
If its truly right for you
Your desire will come to be

Once i read a statement which i would like to share here, , when you are confused between 2 options, , just flip the coin in the air, , it'll not solve your problem, , , but, , , while coin will be coming back in the air, you'll come to know what your heart is really hoping for.....
