meal of love

one more dissapointment to rack up. i'm the king of regret. the prince of loss. and the pawn of love.

im hungry. hungry for the meal i think i deserve.

i just want a bite.

just a morcel.

i feel like that kid that wasn't tall enough to reach the top of the table.

if i could just get there i would eat slowly.

savour the meal, i've hungered over for so long.

sometimes it helps to pretend that i don't want it.

to try and ignore the hunger.

but the stomach growls my friends, it roars oh it begs to be heard.

my stomach has caved in, all i need are a few bites to satisfy me. just a few bites and this hunger will end.

and now after talking with you i realize my hunger will remain.

my stomach will forever growl. that meal will forever be out of my grasp.

hurry up and pass the whiskey
before i remember who i am
and why im so hungry
