Eternal
by Casie Luong
For the joy of, there is an understanding in me for you.
For the fullness of, there is a void that gropes with anguish
and desire.
For the satisfaction of, the struggle is never enough but it’s
the only sweetness I know.
For the more and for the less,
The work and the sweat,
I give,
I do,
All day and all night.
This is how I survive,
Filled and empty again.
God have mercy that my thirst may find sweetness.
