One Life To Live: Of Desires

Of the thousand desires

That rules the human mind

Some are flaunted

And some confined

Then there are those

That rule beyond leaps and bounds

Of mind, of heart,

And of the eternal soul

Amongst the cosmic sounds

A desire to desire

Or be desired

Desires wane

When inspiration gets tired

But somewhere down in the dark

Lies a lone waning desire

That has stepped back for a while

In the busy hustling fire

It was fiery like the sun's core

And loving like it's rays

The waning desire was masked

In the shadows of the ecliptic phase

That phase, too shall pass

When the hope shines it's rays

For the sunlight wanes for hours

And the moon wanes for days

Burn like the sun

With all your might

Or glow like the moon

With borrowed light

But the light will wax once more

Keep the faith

And believe in your core
