Forbidden things are wanted most,
You chase it, knowing you'll get lost,
Why do we grief when something,
Doesn't come back as we supposed,
Why do we want what isn't ours,
Ready to sacrifice anything,
No matter how much it costs,
Our need is a hungry ghost,
Devours everything,
An addict, smokes till overdosed,
It's a strong horse, unleashed,
Faster than a lightning bolt,
It never likes to be controlled,
But there's a beauty in leashing it,
Putting it in the right stable,
Feeling peace after the danger,
Of letting the rudder of your boat,
Be controlled by the ghost,
Of your uncontrolled instincts,
Trust me, you'll see the beauty at most,
When you replace "reckless" with "calm and happy"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Note from the poet : feel the inner peace once, and you'll never find happiness away from it again.. ❤️
