A Deep Thirst

My life is like a desert.
I've been here for years,
and I haven't been able to swallow since day one.
I've tried so hard to quench that thirst.
I've tried the lemon juice of popularity.
The coffee of boys.
The tea of friends.
The gatorade of doing the right things.
The powerade of appearing perfect.
But in the end, while some may,
on the surface, seem to satisfy -
I'm still left with a deep thirst.
Only the Living Water can satisfy my desire.
Only the Living Water can quench my deep thirst.
Satisfaction comes only through Christ,
not through the dehydrating liquids of this world.
