Father, Family, Foundation.

" I am so always hungry."
Which is true. 

If I am not hungry for food,
Then I am hungry for something bigger.

Answers to the secrets of the universe,
True Love,
A more substantial bustline.

I hunger for contentment
Just to be able to sit and be,
Exist... without wondering.
Thinking. 
Drifting off into the empty, full to the brim chaos of my mind.
I wound be able to sit in complete silence.
But no, I am always hungry for knowledge and love...

Above all, love and answers to life. 
And happiness. 
Contentment, normalcy

I am constantly waking up in the middle of the night, starving. 
Starving for attention,
Love

A father, family, foundation.
