Desire
I yearn to spend my time
In your arms, near your hair
To have your stare
Fixed on mine - I am
Bizarre to want so much
From you who may just exist
As a theory, an unreality, yet
I will be desolate
If you, irreai, are not this
Alive, this
Beautiful.
How my world turns
Strangely now, it pivots
On you, the hub
Of my wheel - a simple
Rendezvous is
A revolution tentatively
Set in motion
Unti! heart and soul
Are spokes stuck
Equidistant from you.
I stretch touch from touch
To you at the heart
To you at the rim, to you
Fixed and turning in
My wide ring of being -
My turning is propelled by thee
And I am blind so fond, so
Free, for you
Have become the
Connected centre of me.
