Desire

Is it a part of life to forever want
even though that's what we did day before
always thinking one more and I'll be happy
is there ever a happily ever after
or just a a mirage of water in hot desert
vanishing the moment we reached the spot
giving us the hope to move forward
yet bringing disappointment all along
is the desire the cause of all distress
or just the very element that makes us human
satisfaction is what we all search for
or just an emotion that will pass us through
eventually making us want it even more
so when does ambition become dangerous
and success a part of next failure
how does one ever find out when
to stop wanting....hoping...asking for more...

  1. :) I remember one paragraph from Kuvempu's "o nanna chetana" after reading this:
    Yelliyoo nilladiru
    maneyanendoo kattadiru
    koneyanendoo muttadiru
    Oh Anantavaagiru!
