My Soul Is Thirsty

I took  a blank sheet
My soul  is thirsty 
Writing  is how I do feed
Her ; since cold tears I weep
Cold as ice ; yes I can them  feel
I tasted them ; yes because I am thirsty
I picked a red pen 
My mind couldn’t words produce
I find a word then ; 
It fled away , when my strave it couldn’t reduce
My thoughts are not tasty
So that I would my mind seduce 
I had a seat 
I wondered  « why I would use the blank sheet ?! » 
The water reached my feet 
I felt thirsty 
I drunk from the nasty 
Tap of life, it temporarely quinchs
My thirst
Counted to five ; it permenently changes
Ruins ; my life and that would always hurt
Me ; I threw the blank sheet  
 I Sank in the water,where no one lends a hand
Thus, I  was swallowed up by the sand.
Very hot sand , that it burnt my sheet .
