Lost With Desire

my throat is dry with thirst

my stomach growls with hunger

desire comes shaped like a knife

need, a sharp blade

on a quest for fulfilment

an epic journey to quench

it slides along dry skin

parting soft tissue to give way to a river of blood

this longing is my moses

parting the crimson waves

the sorrow in me craves relief

could it be inside me?

could it be in that read sea named pain?

or could it be in you?
