Why does love make you fat?


  Why does love have to make you fat?
   All that I could see was that leftover bowl of
   homemade mac and cheese that I made for dinner last night.
  It came to me every time I saw your face in my head
   and felt that bittersweet rush of pain fill me again.
  So here I am with that bowl in my lap
   filled with cream and cheese and butter and carbs,
   contemplating on my computer screen the ten pounds I'm
  gaining and asking again,
  Why does love have to make you fat?
