To Hunger

There I stared into the world, blinded by my hunger
Starving, bleeding, and fully abandoned by dreams
But I might hunger, my flesh unworthy of being fed
Desiring what I do not need, for a fight downstream
Look for more than I ought, to escape my locked box
Just a man, with nothing more than hope and mercy
Future is unknown, there is no promise, only hope
I live to know truth, even if it means I will not pass
My heart lives, my mind is alive, but I am drowning
Please share your grace and please throw me a rope
Or I might drown, starve from my own mistakes
You are all I need, you are all it would take
For me to survive the world, before I break
