This loveless life I have built
Teaches me the beauty
Of barren trees and wides expanses
In nothing everything takes life
The caverns grow wide to hold space
In time I will know
The sweetness of the fruit
Brightness of the stars
The heady scent of summer flowers
That will all starkly stand bold
Giving flesh and color
To my desert wandering halfsoul
To touch, to taste, to smell, to live again
After such a long repose
Will make all the world beautifully alive
To hunger so deeply makes every meal
A lush banquet of delight

"...To hunger so deeply makes every meal
