Obsession
Is a term.
It describes the hunger,
The thirst for something
So perfect.
Something so fitting for the mind.
It makes things shatter.
Always getting farther away,
With each step forward.
Desire
Is word
That pulls and tugs
On the heartstrings.
It pulls an idea of reality
Out of the depths of wants
And disfigures it into a lie.
It sucks the moisture from
The cheeks of those who have cried wanting other.
Truth
Is a pain
That only distorts comforts.
With it's serrated edge,
It cuts the skin deep.
Like glass it is transparent
And is built around life.
It tears apart wanted things
And chosen callings.
Dreams
Are adventures
That build new days and nights.
They give a push
And give a hope to all who think outside
Normal.
Strangest morals
Get shifted to the opposite side.
Gifts don't always carry far enough.
Destiny
Is fragile
And a burden to some.
A specific path is given
And wanted by those who listen and obey.
It can be twisted into the same obligation
For who is not listening.
So simple is the deception,
That makes it believable.
Duty
Makes tears come.
It is unwanted
But serves the same purpose
As wanting change for things.
Getting caught up in what the world
Needs only crushes confidence.
Carrying out small sacrifices
For selfish breaths.
Drive
Is given
By motivation
For all kinds of wants, needs, and wishes.
It works magic for the devoted
While being the cause for
Putting food on the table.
It is needed
To push the world in its phase.
"Wishing for Longing," is wishing for a break from having a compulsion to want something. Thought longing drives so many forward, it can be a punishment for those who just can't get enough of anything. For the ones who need simplicity. However, longing is also wishing for the greatest dreams to come true. Making what the heart wants, a reality. A mix of break, pressure, and coming true is what should be seen more often to help bring more positivity in the world.
