Somewhere deep within me
Lies a strength I never knew
It's dormant power
Cooking up its hearty brew

One day a tantrum wakes it up
A what? You say
That's right, a grown man
Throwing food around
Leaving me aghast
With no appetite

No appetite for this nice meal
Nor for his drunken sorry
I have no words
My mind is frozen
Leave me be, do not come near me
Your touch and your approach are
Dead to me. It's over
Finally
