Desires To Be Experienced Poem by Louise Tredoux

Desires To Be Experienced



The New Testament teaches we should
love ALL people, spiritualists claim true
peace is only found in freeing ourselves
from our passions and desires

I’m not willing to do either, I want to love
Rudi only, without constraint, passionately,
not guarded for in case he should die or
run away or fall in love with someone else

If he does, I’ll stab him with a knife, otherwise
how would he ever know how much I loved
him? And if I should abandon him, he’ll kill
me surely, ah, glorious life!

Heady feelings, emotions and desires were
made to be experienced, I shall not renounce
them as yet, there still are so many delicious
sensations and new adventures

Waiting in this - my wonderful life!
