Crave

A brief poem about emotional hunger, the risks of letting it get out of control and the need to evolve.

I am a fire inside a monsoon

I am a torch amidst a burning moon

a torrent that cannot be quenched too soon

lust pride and envy

the flame before the ruin

A fire that burnt to a finish

the whoosh of wind that spilled the heat

the releasing of the tempest

the fury in retreat
