The Hunger

Kurt Philip Behm

Never able

to wash away

this stain

my heart

has bled

 

Never able

to birth

the words

of feelings

left unsaid

 

Never able

to move

beyond

this chasm

in my head

 

Never able

to answer

why

the hunger

— stays unfed

 

(Dreamsleep: July, 2026)

    Kurt, I know what it is to carry emotions that refuse to translate themselves into anything manageable. Sometimes the inability to articulate what hurts only deepens its hold on us. This resonated deeply, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛
