Satisfaction, or Lack Thereof

Insatiable-

Draining bank accounts

Eating fistfuls of money

Searching for savory

To satiate this hunger inside.

Unstable-

Every inconvenience

Streams tears into my mouth

Searching for salt

To drown this sadness.

Unable-

Knowing the dangers

Can’t keep us apart, I’m

Searching for sweet

To heal this illness.
