Desire

I am nothing I am grace.

I’m that smile upon your face.

I’m you waking every hour.

I’m you struggling for your power.

I’m the darkness in the night.

I’m the sweetness of first light.

You cannot see me for I am pain.

I am what makes your heart so lame.

I am the truth I tell no lies.

I often catch you by surprise.

Some deny me.

Some sit still.

But I have you all.

And I always will.
