• The Dark Night

  All my childish life I have been taught

                    big words

  omnipresent                       almighty

              all-powerful  (okay that’s two words)

  Everywhere is where you are.

                 in the sun,

  the moon,                the breeze,

  the leaves on the trees and the breath of a child.

  But you have left me, I am abandoned.

                                         Like a litany, a song that won’t end

  your words circle in my head,

                               “I thirst!”

  I cannot meditate, contemplate or even pray.

                 “I thirst!”                “I THIRST!”
  I close my eyes and I see the words that I hear.

  Satiate my thirst, I beg.

                               Come back into my world,

  fill the void that you have left behind.

  “I THIRST!”
