Undesired Desire
By Charles Moffat

Love, that paramount of passions
The only thing worth
living for
Dying for
Walking through Hell for
But a greater torment awaits
The undesired
Unreturned love, indeed,
UNACKNOWLEDGED LOVE!
Is the barbed blade
Tainted with a slow poison
Think of an red rose
Beautiful, desirable
But poisoness and prickly
For red is the symbol of lust
Not love
Yellow is friendship
Orange, my favourite
Unique in every way
That's the symbol of enduring love
My rose, an orange one,
Is wilting
Poisoned by my red ones.


Smoldering Delusions
By Charles Moffat

I don't want you anymore
Stay away from me
I can't think straight
My heart beats too fast
I love you still but stay away
Your love is pain
No more delusions
No more lying to myself
Go the way you go
And I will go mine
But know this:
I'll be leaving part of my soul behind
I can't take it with me
It will prevent me from loving another
If thats possible
The stars will still shine without you
Life will go on
The fire within, remains
The torch I lit,
I now smolder.
