Desire

Laying alone in the dark of night,

silence moves to engulf me completely.

Try as it may,

it will never silence my heart.

For the heart shouts and shines through

any depth of darkness and shadow.

It beats for you,

it keeps me living for you.

All it desires is one last thing:

The warmth of your heart,

mended with mine.
