O Soul!
Pray speak to me —
Who is this that torments,
Who is this that slowly devour,
My heart?
#torment;
O Soul!
Pray speak to me —
Who is this that torments,
Who is this that slowly devour,
My heart?
#torment;
Through the storm,
Hand in hand with,
Thoughts of you,
I have found my way,
To the clouds,
Now let me stay here,
Swirling in the wind,
My thirst for life,
Ever unslaked.
#freeverse
Never,
I thought I’d get,
To live my life again;
That these eyes again would thirst for,
Its tears.
#cinquain
Trickling,
Life seeps to me,
Drop by drop I taste it,
Thus, my thirst for life is ever,
Unslaked.
#cinquain
Tonight I shall sleep drunken,
With the spirit of your love,
And tomorrow, I shall wake,
Parched with a frenzied,
Thirst for more.
#free_verse
Come, come ye clones of thirst,
My fate too has been as the
Damnation of Tantalus,
Come,
Drown in these floods with me.
#Musing
Come now
Give me relief,
From thirst, hunger and grief,
And that my distracted heart seek
Of you.
You ask
About this thirst —
Why I love you so much,
Beloved, ’tis not my will — You are
my fate.
