Myriad desires unspoken
sheathed in ceaseless ache
with breathings broken
longing evermore, at nights remain awake
someday dreams will be manifested
and prayers realized
yearning heart will feel rested
which once was love deprived
the hour of smelting noon
when the sun is ochre
wouldn’t let me resign
and settle for mediocre
seeking one divine, for I know I am cursed
– no ordinary love will quench this perennial thirst.

Wow! I love the lines:
‘the hour of smelting noon
when the sun is ochre
wouldn’t let me resign
and settle for mediocre’.

Those last lines sum it all beautifully…no our passionate thirsts cannot be quelled by the ordinary….no it takes an extraordinary person to do that.

AH, I do think one should strive for the ‘extraordinary love.’ The one that is deeper than passion, the one that fills one’s yearnings. Beautiful poetry!
