Mortal Desire Poem by Heather Marie Mortimer

Mortal Desire



Serenity escapes me, each night and each morn
As every moment I breathe, a new passion is born
And nothing burns out, no, none of them die
So no rest in this blinding light which I lie.

I am bright as the stars, just as lonely as such
For my fire burns hotter than any man could so touch.
So I cannot hold onto you, my mortal desire
Just look on you sadly as my heart soars higher...
