No-Name Desire

Sit atop the world and sigh, a slight laugh or smile will suffice
Endless notions of love wait, but so do misery, hate & mind-rape
Stand before a crowded space with scream
Do not scream too loudly in the company of enemies
There are not enough acres to feel the void
This universe is filled with motionless noise
Yesterday sits and waits to be fixed
Today gets tired and decides to quit
Tomorrow fate will show its wit
Answers and questions that is what there is
Except for the desire that lies within
A desire with no name that haunts the soul
With a deep burning feeling that goes untold
Reflections jump from mirror to mirror
Pity a mirror can not reflect better the complex spirit
That goes unseen forever!

We are nothing if not complex, that's for sure! Thought provoking piece, Chris. Well done!

A very powerful poem, through a lense of magnified anger. Here's hoping you feel better.
