Lust or love?



With master fisherman
Flashy boat, plenty fish
Net woven, caught six
Off the boat,
Fire and jinx
To and fro in the mix
He was hungry
But i lost my apitite
He said, "Eat it there will be more"
I said, "I need some air, i am sure"
He said, "Don't go yet, you seem thirsty;
                  Air, blood and water firstly?"
I said, "Blood"
He and i fell with the thud
All i said ,"Now we drown in the sea
                   We won't ever feel thirsty
                   There are plenty fish in the sea
                    You see

About this poem

What is love? What is lust? We all ask ourselves this question, i wrote this poem to illustrate how we all start innocent and how we are drawn towards lust in the process of finding love.
