im hungry again

what vegetable is this?

the root of my problem,

i have yet to resist.

my mind is swirling,

twisting and curling

like salted pretzels

or yogurt with fruit on the bottom

im hungry again,

this is my problem.

you butter me up

im all warm and toasty

i dont have you but i do mostly

you taste me than burn me

why cant you adore me

im starving it true

but for you not for food

your love would taste better than any confection

just tell me you want me ill shrink to perfection

my tummy is rumbling

you are sick of my grumbling

im constantly chewing

these thoughts that keep brewing

please forgive, its i choke or keep spewing

i just need a crumb a sliver a sign

if the swallowing stopped you would be mine

through the aisles of life i constantly roam

digesting the hurt hoping you'll throw me a bone

leftovers im scarfing from cooks come before

these recepies bore me i crave a lot more

ive thrown myself on the fire

in hopes to aquire

someone with taste

of whom i admire

ive choked down tears

ive swallowed my pride

ive eaten it all and have rotted inside

you plucked at my wall

you seared my skin

you stuffed me with hope

and i let you in

im hungry now

should i eat?

should i puke

or admit defeat

a candy coated knife you jammed in my heart

im nothing but coffee cake crumbling apart

does it matter to you my beautiful chef?

do you want me now

should i eat whats left?
