Hungry-a Poem

Recently, while looking through some old things I wrote, I found this poem. I hope you like this message as much as I do.

Hungry
Thirsty
Take a drink
Can of soda
Snap and pop
Open up
And pour it out
Take a sip
Let the taste
The fizz
Tickle my tongue
It fills me up
Easily
Makes me feel full
But
My thirst
Has not been quenched
I want more
But there is no more
Left.
The full feeling
Sits in my tummy
But slowly subsides
And I realize
I'm still hungry
Thirsty
Need something more
Something else.
In life
We feel hungry
Thirsty
Yearning
For something
To fill our souls
Our hearts
Our lives
Our days and nights
With fulfillment
Accomplishment
With meaning
But the fizz
The excitement
The bubbly feel
The colorful choices
Of drinks
Entice us
And we take a sip
Finish the can
Indulge
In physicality
In pleasures
In fleeting pleasures
That don't last
Out to eat
Out to shop
To the mall
To the shops
To the restaurants
To ice cream
We're never satiated
We want more
Vacations
Luxuries
We chase them all
But we don't feel full
Something's missing
That inner yearning
That inner thirst
Cannot be quenched
By physicality
By materialistic pleasures alone
There's more

There's more to life.
