perhaps wanting is a kind of negation

perhaps wanting is a kind of negation
of all other possibilities

and once you embrace it
it spins a cocoon around you

encapsulating all dreams
transformative in restriction

waiting for that single season
that one kiss that will brand with desire

and you have no choice
but to metamorphose

with the caressive hope 
of the one who can protect you

once you are free
and drawn to fatal light.
