FLEETING THOUGHTS

I want a tattoo

A small shaped lotus flower

A little beaded pattern spelling enigma

I want a piercing

On my belly button

Flaunting my sweet skin

I want an engraving

Deep within my soul

Curdled with my passions

I want a home

Warm with sweet smiles

Cuddling my pleasures – toast my feet are

I want a hug

Enveloping my senses

Whispering to my hope – stay

My many wants muddled in the throes of life

Crushed in my fears and shells of repute

Tears drop, filing down the creases

Filing past the sniffles that escape my lips

Gasps of overwhelming emotions wash over

All thoughts scramble in search of a haven

Serenity!

A place where I can focus

Pinpoint what best is due me

Comfort my self

Envelop myself in the warmth of my dreams
