Sadly I believe for many generations it has been lacking. We simply fail to recognize it in our own. We all hunger and there is only one place that hunger can be truly satisfied.

Wow, I like how you connect a strangers embrace with "grabbing a quick bite". It might fill you up for a bit, but it won't satisfy (as a loved one's embrace would). Your best cinquain so for, methinks!
