Thirsty

This evening, someone will be gasping for a drink.

When they finally have that drink, for a few short moments they will, be refreshed. For a few short moments.

There will be a time of happiness at being satisfied. For a few short moments.

There will be a time when they will even forget they were thirsty. For a few short moments.

Before long, though, that feeling will return. That feeling will intensify until the desire become such that there will be a gasping. Gasping for a drink.

If only there was something that would satisfy … I could do with a drink …
