Desire
I saw a book in library,
I wanted to read it,
I bought it from a book shop,
I no more want to read it,
It is still craving for touch,
Somewhere inside my bookshelf.
I saw a food vlog,
I had an urge to taste that recipe,
I ordered it from a place,
I am no more hungry,
I just lost my appetite.
I saw a lonely guy,
I wanted to share his loneliness,
I suffocated him with love,
Now we barely know each other.
About this poem
