I Hunger For Ya

I count the hours on the clock wait for the phone to ring it doesn’t then, it does I hunger for ya. Perfection is the name of the game everything must be right this time or bust my brain I hunger for ya Your voice digs deep into the pit that is my soul a tranquilizer that soothes I hunger for ya What will I do with this discard or die or go into the dark and conquer the unknown? I hunger for ya When I see your name I fear deep down in my bowels what now, what will love ask of me or not ask I hunger for ya. Daydream melodies, you don’t understand them? a thing hoped for you can’t mass produce at a thousand an hour I hunger for ya. In a real love there’s no place for starvation or bathroom dreams by candlelight perfumed pearls only still I hunger for ya. 12/17/17 Hunger Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Silent One
