This Intruder Named Desire
Published 2024-07-04
Are you a part of my sovereignty
or another ego entrapment of my heart?
I’ve been co-writing cowardness with tremorous themes of timidness
A high-rise downward spiral designated from the start
to lose all restraints to your uninhibited arms…
Is it sinful to abandon the prose previously ascribed to my soul?
White lies beneath vulnerable eyes
prove more venomous than previously known
You creep in passionate cravings
around the vestiges of my partially opened heart
I’m dissolving this intruder named desire
yet you stalk her with such honestly intentioned perfected art…
