I Hunger

I hunger for something something to fill my heart, I hunger for something Yes,something that will take away my hunger. I hunger for real trust Trust that makes me safe If only it makes me satisfied That I can go anywhere safely. I hunger for direction The direction towards righteousness If it gives me the satisfaction I can feel Only hoping that tomorrow will come I hunger for peace and unity Reunion of varied ideologies Politically,religiously and socially In this geodesic world I live in a rocket The one shaped with a pointed stick Stitching out for everyone to see; Then,why should I not hunger for a better one?

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

Geodesic indeed! Where are the others? Exude them out and your hunger will... well... say it!
