~Desire has shown~


Seduced by Desire


What is there to do
when desire has seduced us
it grabs us by the touch of the hand
then we're loosing us to the madness
called mentaly ill
Is desire a sickness to kill
to leave, to live

What is there to do
when desire has seduced us
the mind splits up and it becomes a struggle
what is there to do
when we are seduced by desire

When desire grabs us
and we're loosing control
in the depth of the power
between an erotic wish or time

What is there to do
when desire has seduced us
when desire becomes
one of our sins
and in a lost time
we loose our breaths

When desire trapps us
we are seduced
and there's no return to innocence
then the mind struggles
between something called
principals of lust
What is there to do
when we are seduced by desire

We feel temptation so deep within
I'm standing here
sex is a sin
my soul is shaking, shivering

The passion glows and glitters
in the eyes of seduction
seduction of lust
then the're no heartbeat to trust
a pulse of warm embrace
an intense floatation in your veins
Then I'm seduced by desire

What is there to do
when we are seduced by desire

Zoya Zaidi
This is beautifully expressed!

I am tempted to quote here, rather translate, a beautiful couplet by Ghalib, the famous Urdu poet:

"Thousands are my desires and each, is good enough to die for/
The more my desired are fulfilled, the more I long and vie for"

Of course, horribly lost in translation!

((((Hugs dear Malin for a very inspired piece of poetry))))))

Love, xxx, Zoya

Desire and lust are fine as long as they are not confused with the heart. Desire is one of many emotions which we need to satisfy an attend to. Much can be gained between two poeple in a moment of true unfettered honest passion. A very good write exploring a often confused subject.
