before my thirst was fully quenched.
I didn't realize how good it was
until the aftertaste hit.
An aftertaste that only makes me want
another gulp (the more I have, the more I want).
A flavor hard to place a finger on, but easy to recall
Which, now that I can't have it, only makes things hard.
The rarity of this drink
means I can only find it (and its breathtaking relief) in one place.
But I'm still thirsty
And you're not here.
