I'm a parched desert That longed for you Desperately While you were away for miles; Now suddenly here you are! You've return to me, at last. Your smile and skin glistening Before my sore eyes. Hosanna! You're the cloudburst To heal the drought within me And I'm more than thirsty! My true, I needn't fall down On my knees And beg To devour you whole, To engulf you Like a hungry abyss!
