it starts off small
the noise does
the longer I stare
the louder it gets
the hungrier i become
the less I want to eat
i’m worried all the time
like if I start, I can’t stop
if I don’t, then I won’t have to
-it controls my life
and now I’m scared
when I have to
it’s very little
hardly any, to none at all
the trick is always staying busy
the busier I am
the quieter the noise
which eventually fades
in to nothing at all
-the hardest habit to break
is the easiest ritual to follow
