Hunger For passions yet known Those that deceive For needs that have grown Hunger For excitement The pounding of that beat Desires of the moment The pleasures that we reap Hunger For advancement Moving forward from this time Not needing to look back No questions to define Hunger For the fire That which makes you yearn Confined without desire The flame no longer burns Hunger For that closure To set my mind at ease Understanding all that ails me Beyond that which is seen Hunger Is not defined by one word But a culmination of desires and hopes That edge us ever forward Helping us to cope With life. |

Rich? I LOVED the last stanza...how often do we say, after eating, "I didn't know how hungry I was?" Most often, we don't. Most painful, is when we do. Keep 'em coming... Your writing is remarkable, and I am enjoying muchly! |
