Hunger

Judy (Wishes)
jkp@mail.bright.net


I feel a hunger deep inside
That my mask no longer hides.
Is revenge the thing I seek?
Can it be pride that makes me weak?
I feel an emptiness of soul.
Did my own violence take a toll,
Leave a wound that will not heal,
That mere words cannot reveal?
I feel an absence, but of what?
Has it been lost or never sought?
Is it for power that I yearn
Or for love I've never earned?
I feel a need that I can't fill,
A cry no discipline can still.
A thirst I can't deny,
A pain that I must heal. . . .or die.
