Always the Hunger
Don Hynes
Many lives I’ve lived in this life,
new characters, changing look and feel
but the same eager eye, listening ear
and the hunger, always the hunger.
I’ve fooled myself with disguises
but now I sit with the Watcher,
eyes alert that will not sleep,
ear awakened to Her heartbeat.
I am the brightness in the morning sky
and the one who’s gazing,
the color rising in the clouds
but a blush in my heart,
the life force lifting upward
and the hunger, always the hunger.
