Desire

The heart wants,
What the soul desires.
Let it demand,
Before the time expires.

True. We should never be hard on ourselves. Life is short. Live it to the fullest.
Nicely done!

You're welcome :)

Desire rules us all, just as we were born from it, and into it. And as you say, our time is short, so why not chase our desires while we can. You express a lot in a short poem. Very nice. :)

Enjoyed this. made me think that we have limited time in this world, thus we need to live the most of it doing the things we love; maybe as I am doing right now, reading and writing:)

[Ghania]

Thank you!

Very pithy and nicely rhymed. Loved the economy of expression. Yes, let the heart demand before the big clock runs out. The problem is that sometimes what the heart thinks it must have is not what soul has in mind. Well done.

[Ghania]

[Ghania]

Thanks a lot. :)

You are spot on here and I love it. Before the time ecpires. Indeed, there will come a time when strength will wane and desires will be like dried strings hung up on a rope, long forgotten. Beautiful poetry from you.

[Ghania]

Thank you so much, Divya :)

What a beautiful longing to have the heart fulfilled by the deep desires of the soul. May we all learn to listen to the quiet places in us that speak so purely. Blessings!
