Hungry Soul

what if
i feed the hungry soul
with the
droplets
of your love and beauty?
will your secret river of honey
nourish my
tender ribs
soothing my
painful memories?
and
what if
a flash of your smile
lit up
the night?
will you feed my longing
with the endless
glow of emotion
under the full moon?
