Famished
DORMANT IN AN EMOTIONLESS STATE
MY ABILITY TO EXPRESS MY CARES OPENLY AND FREELY
SOMEHOW HAVE ESCAPED FROM ME.
NOW STARVED FOR COMPASSION AND UNDERSTANDING
THAT NOURISHES THE SOUL TO SATISFY
HUNGRY FOR THE FULFILLMENT
THAT FEELING SAFE AND SECURE CAN SIGNIFY.
I WILL NOT DEVOUR THE BOUNTY WHICH HAS BEEN GIFTED TO ME
A DESERVING HEART PUT AT EASE
I WILL SAVOUR EVERY WORD
EVERY LOOK, EVERY TOUCH, AND EVERY GESTURE
THE PANGS THAT ACHED HAVE COME TO PASS
AND THE HURT I NO LONGER HAVE TO ENDURE.
I WILL OPENLY GIVE, NOT RATION MY CARING HEART'S FASHION
SO FREELY I WILL CONVEY MY ADORING ADMIRATION AND COMPLETE DEVOTION.
YOU HAVE RESCUED ME FROM A DESOLATE FATE
THE WARMTH YOU GENERATE
HAS HELPED ELEVATE MY FAMISHED SPIRIT
HAPPINESS IS NOW WHAT I REVEAL.
SO IT IS EVIDENT
A FEEBLE HEART CAN HEAL.
