Echoes of desire
#YearningEchoes
"In the depths of my soul, a ache resides
A yearning so fierce, it cannot subside
For something beyond grasp, a distant shore
A longing that echoes, evermore

Like a bird that beats its wings in flight
Only to find the sky is out of sight
My heart strains to reach the unattainable
A dream that dissolves, like sand ungraspable

In the darkness of night, it whispers low
A melancholy sigh, that only I know
A craving that gnaws, a hunger that pierces
A sorrow that sweetly, my heart disperses

For something that lies, just beyond my sight
A treasure that glimmers, with elusive light
I reach and I reach, but it slips away
Leaving me with the ache, of another day

Yet still I hold on, to this futile quest
For in the longing, my heart finds its nest"
