Desires~~~

I desired swells
So the oceans rose!

I desired new life
So the earth shook!

I desired happiness
So butterflies danced!

I desired peace
So clouds caught me in their bubble!

I desired freedom
So the winds dragged me on their course!

I desired kindness
So life pampered me as it would pamper a child!

I desired purity
So dew droplets recounted to me their story!

I desired inspiration
So my muse filled up my heart, even if from afar!

I desired fulfillment
So fate thrust me on my fated path!

I desired Death
So the skies opened up my soul
And showed me the personification of Love on earth!

I desired Love
And learnt to submit to Time
To the whims of the Ego
To the conditions of Patience
And to the rules that govern being a woman!

Desires, desires,
Desires fill me up
As air fills up everything all around us
As words fill up books
As feelings fill up the heart!

Desires, desires
Pray, can I be stronger
Stronger enough as to beat them
Or,
Shall they drag me along
Pulling me by my hair
And have me succumb to them
In ecstatic submission?
