Desires

My desires burn like embers in my soul,

Each one is a flame that I cannot quench.

I long for love and success and control,

But these wants may never fully be met.

I desire the comfort of security,

A steady job with a high salary.

 I wish for a house and luxury, 

But is material wealth essential?

I yearn for passion in my relationships,

Deep emotional connections to one another.

Intimacy and genuine companionship, 

But often I have left longing for more. 

I hunger for knowledge and understanding, 

A never-ending quest for truth and wisdom. 

I crave adventure and new experiences, 

Desires drive me towards my freedom.
