Define

What would a word be

Without a definition?

Something to give it meaning;

Comprehensible, useful, beautiful.

(Who am I without God?)

That hunger, ache, that emptiness

Relentlessly I try to plug,

fill

seal

But I cannot find the words to define it.

Numb it with liquor?

(Every bottle has its bottom)

Fill it with things?

(There are not enough Mercedes Benz on this earth.)

A good inhale of THC?

(Every high has its low.)

That boy?

(He can take me to 10, but my curfew is at 11.)

No matter what I throw myself into

There is no satisfaction.

And so I delve;

I dig and weep

Uproot and search

And the cries of my heart

are answered.

Adonai, Elohim, Father of Lights, Champion of my heart;

Jesus.

His name; coded into my very heart-call,

His words only could fill that void

His is the power to define,

And not only to define, but to re-define.

So great is my need that

Nothing held back

I throw myself into Him

Recklessly.

I am consumed.

Hunger has such a sweet source.
