Desire No More
No More Desire
Anywhere inside of me
I've lost the will to love
And the will to live
Has been thrown to the wolves
Like a bone with blood
Freshly dripping from the meat
Flowing slowly towards
The mouth of a hungry wolf
And when it's jaw crushes
The hollow white shell
To expose the prize within
The ravenous animal tears in
And devours all traces of me

I feel like this most days. Life just eats away at your heart and soul. Each day gets harder to get thru. :)
