Will this water still be sweet

After I quench my thirst?

Will you still be beautiful

When I truly understand you?

Holding your desire as much as you can

While adding your hunger madly

to a dish, I mean as a kind of sauce

to enjoy the real,

Yes the real taste of it

Is it really the only true way?

Tell me,

Must I be stay ignorant and starving

Ever and after

To make you so beautiful,

Your water so sweet?
