I cried the day you left me
All alone I would sit and stare out the window
Why did you go
Did I not love you enough.
Was I not loyal enough
Even when you hurt me I returned to you
Even when you changed till I could not recognize you
I stayed and loved you
And now I am alone
Now I must find another
But I know none can take your place
Krispy Kreme
Why did you close your doors here.
All doughnuts are now like ash in my mouth
What is there for me now.
The knife slides across the flesh
Over and over; a work of art
The bitter sting wells at the back of my throat
Flames in my sinuses; arson of the brain
I cannot deny you, I must have you once more
Sashimi
Dark hours of the night
Wrapped around me, shroud-like,
No one to see our hidden tryst
But the staring street lights;
Its in these moments
Between you and I alone
You look into my soul and
There is understanding;
The depths of my soul weep
At the comfort of Fourth Meal.
Why do I find myself here again
Trolling the streets staring
An uncontrollable hunger burns me inside
I have a need that can’t be filled
Why do you close so early Bakery
Once again I drive home Denied.
I will have vengeance
My hate will burn you.
But in the morning you are open
Your baked treats sooth my hate
For now.
hands are shaking
breath is quick
anger rising
take my medicine
They all reject me
They all looked the other way
I never got a chance
Now they’ll all pay
Mountain Dew fuels me
Takes the pain away
Black because I hurt inside
Black because it feels real
Black because it matches my pain
Black because the world is gray
Black because it draws the eye
Black because society is a lie
Black because its slimming
Black because it hides the (food) stains
Black because I am afraid of being different
Black is all there is to me
hidden within
secret surprise
slowly undress
heart racing
hands trembling
last, best
taking my time
pudding cup
lunch afterglow
I’ve seen you before
standing, wanting, waiting
We’ve met here before
serving, slaving, vending
You serve their desires
just as you serve mine
A tempting choice
which of your delights to enjoy?
I venture forth burning with a terrible need
I hunt the night seeking my prey
Darkness is all around matching the shades in my soul
Why I am I driven thus
Why does this need drive me
Why must I hate myself so
I see it there my hunt nears its end
I can taste my prey
My mind rebels while my body hungers.
I curse thee White Castle
I curse my father for introducing you to me
I curse you alcohol for clouding my mind an waking this hunger
Once again the late night menu calls to me
Once again I will devour what I know will harm me
Once again my beast rules me.
Damn this weakness
Damn the Crave.
I am assailed by your sweet voice promising paradise but delivering hell
You tempt me when I am week and then cause me agony when I succumb
I curse you Food court, you vile den of temptation and inequity.
Why can I not stand against your sirens song.
