Hunger

why do I crave what I can't have
want what's not good for me
long to have it now
hurt when someone else has it
feel responsible for the damage

Inside the hole is growing
this hunger needs to stop
what is it hungry for
How should I feed it

Nothing ever goes away
time doesn't always help
Inside are always memories
reminding me of what I can't have

I like this one. Kind of because I'm hungry right now and my family ate all of the cake and cheese puffs (stupid I know) so I'm hungry for that.

Sometimes it won't ever go away because maybe it isn't supposed to. Or maybe it is, and time will only take it away. And sometimes time takes a long time AND something else to cover the pain...something else to block it. Mostly it's just there to make you stronger.
...but I'm pretty sure you know all of this.

:) Thanks for always putting up poetry, it feeds me in ways I don't even get.
