Lust

They say I won't be able to handle this, 
I won't be able to accept you're gone,
I won't be able to detach.
I don't know how I might react when you leave.
For with us there are no promises or little whispers of love.
There are no gentle gazes or romantic dinners.
What there is, is a violent streak of passion.
A need to devour each other and be satisfied. 
When I am with you, when I lie next to you, exhausted yet satisfied,
I often wonder what this means? 
This relationship, what is it! 
I have no answer. I'm afraid to ask you, for I might lose you.
But when you nibble my lip or kiss my ear I feel so fulfilled.
Will I get attached? 
I don't know.
You refuse to talk.
You leave me with no other option but withdrawal owing to my proneness to be broken.

Direction

How must I tread these Pastures of life? 
If I were the wandering breeze,
Tamed only by my spirit,
If I were the rebellious stream,
Controlled only by my fancies,
How would I proceed?
Would I let trees and boulders curtail me once in a while? 
Or would I be careful around these?
Would I be impulsive or would I plan my journey? 
Would I ever slow down or change my course? 
The anticipation of the journey is more complex than the journey itself! 
But, then again, how would I tread these pastures of life?
