I reach for water in the desert,
a mirage shimmering in the heat.
My lips are cracked with longing,
my heart, a vessel, pleading to be filled.

But when I kneel to drink,
I taste only sandβ€”
grains that cut, not quench,
dust that dries the soul.
Have you ever had someone go back and forth with you? They love you today. Hate you tomorrow. Then love you again.
