Me, as me

Desire at a nightfall,
craving at dawn,
pain and lust,
unreal desire,
forbidden love,
memories,
commitment,
wildest dreams,
the need for tenderness,
suffering and happiness,
all that
coagulated into
a faceless mass,
mass of emotions,
exaggerated emotions,
turbulent spirits,
condemnation and hypocrisy,
unexplained fears,
norms and rules,
ordinary,
everyday,
impersonal and haggard,
miserable and sad,
individuals
drawn through our lives
and leaving an eternal trace.
