Hunger
There is a hunger that chases
after me
A staring gaping maw of damnation
it pulls at my being
taking pieces
strand by strand
the sinew thinned like hair
It longs to swallow the
very last of my soul
As it paws and bites me
Smaller memories were the first to go
but now the entirety of me is
being picked
It takes the most succelent morsels
last
And all that is left is my pain and my fear
I wonder which one will taste sweeter
