Stasis

This urge:

     spontaneous

     yet ingrained

     in my soul –

 

This need:

     like fire

     consuming

     and painful,

     undying –

 

This longing:

     bittersweet,

     unfulfilled

     in moments of

     unseeming perfection –

 

This void:

     empty

     and holding

     nothing

     yet everything

     I have to give,

     unrealized,

      unborn,

      waiting

      for me

 

to play God.
