Desire (poem)

Were I to suppress my desire,
I would sleep my life away,
lost in a dream.
For it is desire
which leads me to practice
mindfulness & awaken to
relief from my mind's unrest.
Without desire,
I would be lost to endless craving,
subject to addiction
with this crazy world.
Everyday I am driven
to practice mindfulness,
until ego is appeased.
Indeed, it is desire
which leads me to practice
mindfulness & awaken to
relief from my mind's unrest.
