Your hunger drives my soul

Your outstretched legs expand my awe
Your curled-up body sweeps me up in love
Your quietly sitting eyes push my dance for joy

Your tears sting my eyes
Your pained arm crushes my heart
Your hunger drives my soul

Your laughter heals my past wounds
Your smile moistens my lips with hope
Your singing erases all hatred

You serve as my life’s straw
You are my life’s rock dove
You are my son, forever my boy

You make me a better person
