You know...
I've found myself here
many
times before
drinking from your glass
licking my lips
always
thirsty for more
of your love laced
guidance
and tolerance

yes...
you know...
all too well
you can
taste the pain
cry my tears

YES
I used to feel
you right beside me
in my times
of uncertainity
but....
I can't
see you...

have you forsaken me?...

did you
grow tired of
me always crying
out your name
only to run away
in fear
of rejection
and being abandoned...

I'm scared
my spirit
parched...

I'm so
thirsty
how much
longer
will
my
soul
experience
this drought...

I'm reaching...
I'm bleeding...
I'm thirsty...

for your love...

If at first you don't succeed destroy all the evidence that you tried.

This is lovely. thirst...is worse than hunger.

And the angel said unto me, "These are the cries of the carrots, the cries of the carrots!"
