A Wish To Expand

I like to despair

To the sound of love

I like to dance as you seduce me

And then someone

Or something

Makes me feel alive

To complete my wish

But it's more than just my wish

It's the heart of the world

The desire that is within ourselves

And our much hated boundaries

We should free ourselves

Let our spirits flow

And shout the truth

The truth is inside our sick minds

What do you want

She wondered

With her head off her heart

I want you

I said

With a smile on my face

Then I got my despair

And she found the passion for love

Between the lines in my poetry

Are you my muse

I asked

Well what have you got

She replied

I have what you want

Love and madness

Nakedness and failure of success

So I said while the universe

Expanded my mind
