Daily Desire

Today he is white, clean shaven, and tanning in the glistening sun

Tomorrow he will be raven haired, tall, and mysterious, sitting alone

Today I imagine our life together and the possability of fun

Tomorrow I fantasize about his stature in the bedroom and dream of being thrown

Today, while I sit inside my lonely room, my eyes lock onto my daily distraction

Tomorrow I will hang up on my yelling parent and yearn for comforting touch

Today my homework suffers with my need for satisfaction

Tomorrow I will scold myself for being unfocused and wanting too much

Today I allow myself the dream of intimacy instead of my daily tasks

Tomorrow I will pretend to focus but fail at my mundane asks
