I am thirsty

I am thirsty.

I want to

drink something 

that will

go down

smooth

and soothe

me.

What I have

been drinking 

is not working.

It goes

down,

it fools me.

but it does

not calm

me.

Its not good

for my body,

it feels toxic.

Do you 

know what

I mean?

I need a new 

drink....

one that

calms,

heals

and loves

my body.

It starts at

my lips,

touching

my tongue,

down 

my throat

and through 

my veins.

Something

right

after I drink

it,

I crave another.

So as I ponder

my choices,

I realize I have

to make a new

choice.

I get up

and walk out

looking

for what 

feeds my soul,

and quenches

my thrist.
