Desire
When does desire become lust
When does desire become fruitless dreams of yesterday
Was desire ever anything more than lust
Why does desire keep me awake, as if it is a physical hunger for foreign food
Like a mother stopping her child from eating too many sweets, the world stops me from having what I desire
Perhaps to protect me from realising the falsehood of my dreams
Or maybe because the world knows my intentions
