It is a terrible thing, this urge. This hunger that rears its ugly head. A simple smile or kind word, A gentle hand, a sweet glance And I am instantly lost. I am unbuttoning a blouse And pressing hands against me. Lips snarling desperately, Belly aching to be full of kindness, Of sweetness and praise. Of more than this echoing empty. It sickens me most times. The way I bare my neck And roll over. Another ***** in heat; Open, wet and wanting, All just for a little something. I know my body is worth more Than their passing kindness. But it has been so starved That even the tiniest morsel means too much. It doesn't know when we will eat again. When next will someone hold me? When next will someone touch me? When next will someone kiss me Like I mean something? I don't know when I will eat again.

Hunger
It is a terrible thing, this urge. This hunger that rears its ugly head. A simple smile or kind word, A gentle hand, a sweet glance And I am instantly lost. I am unbuttoning a blouse And pressing hands against me. Lips snarling desperately, Belly aching to be full of kindness, Of sweetness and praise. Of more than this echoing empty. It sickens me most times. The way I bare my neck And roll over. Another ***** in heat; Open, wet and wanting, All just for a little something. I know my body is worth more Than their passing kindness. But it has been so starved That even the tiniest morsel means too much. It doesn't know when we will eat again. When next will someone hold me? When next will someone touch me? When next will someone kiss me Like I mean something? I don't know when I will eat again.
