Member Poem

What’s this desire; what’s this quest?
I wonder,
Why do I wander in wilderness?
It seems,
why does it seem that
each wave of the sea is on a quest?
Why does it abandon it to rush ashore?
What does it seek?
What’s this dilemma?
Why’s this confusion?
Why does my shadow deserts me?
Life seems lost
The earth is quiet
The sky is silent
Why then my heart beats so wildly?
Each desire is fraught with consequences dire,
On the path of love
many souls are slaughtered…
O my foolish heart,
who are you to complain?
How can you be so naïve?
What do you yearn?
What do you seek?

Why my crazy heart binds my soul
in such a tangle of passion and pain?
