Hunger Pains

the hunger

the sickness

i try to shake it

but i cant stop shaking

the craving

the desire

attempting to deny them

that which they crave

but im weak

my muscles tighten

my bones snap

but im not thinking about this at this time

all i can think about is the hunger

"when will it be fed" i ponder

as it sucks me dry

this sickness

this disease

having its way with me

pale, yet dark with bruises

engulphing

swallowing

pulling more of me out with each breath it takes

this monster

this demon

cannibalistic down to its core

devouring my body

devouring my soul

and it leaves me here

so hungry, so ill

so broken, and bruised

wishing for a freedom

that i know will never be
