“You’re eating, again?” The question stings like a honeybee’s kiss I smile dryly as I nibble at my plate You have moved on now But I don't hear you “You’re eating, again?” These words intricately constructs heavy vines encircling the delicate hand that once held my fork I smile harder as three words prickles my body Fabricating a paralyzing smog in my skull The food becomes unpalatable and my mouth parches “You’re eating, again?” I rise and then I watch "You’re eating, again?” get flushed in a porcelain bowl And I feel the familiar swell behind my eyes And I weep I weep because I ate again

Three words
“You’re eating, again?” The question stings like a honeybee’s kiss I smile dryly as I nibble at my plate You have moved on now But I don't hear you “You’re eating, again?” These words intricately constructs heavy vines encircling the delicate hand that once held my fork I smile harder as three words prickles my body Fabricating a paralyzing smog in my skull The food becomes unpalatable and my mouth parches “You’re eating, again?” I rise and then I watch "You’re eating, again?” get flushed in a porcelain bowl And I feel the familiar swell behind my eyes And I weep I weep because I ate again
