It is neither good nor bad, like fire. You cannot say anything about it. It can destroy or it can cook your food. It is, as any desire is, relative to circumstance. But if it is a passion, you may distinguish between desire and passion.
Passion is voluptuous, tumult-like, and makes one sick afterwards.
Great discrimination has to be exercised here. There is a famous passage called Kama Gita in the Mahabharata. Desire for God sublimates all other mortal desires. The higher absorbs the lower, the lower should be transmuted to the higher by meditation.
