Sculptured Desires
mortals in motion
sometimes opposed
at times behind
often always
pompous
for their own glee
euphoria
with motives
but you
“sing”
and I observe
listening to you
in sheer radiance
I bathe in your
reflection
where I linger
as you tease
the sculptured
desires of my heart

Your skillfully constructed phrases build to the middle where focus turns to one that stands out, personalizes, and changes mood entirely. Beautifully written. The song was a perfect match. Blessings to you, Amanda…

I like the latter part of this, Amanda, and the ‘sculptured’ phrase. That image is a bit yucky!!
