“Strawberry Moon”

chocolate chip cookies were delicious.

i’d usually eat them on the bed. it was comfier that way.

they were sweet, they dulled my senses and made me numb.

the chocolate would stain the bed and seep into the soft comforter.

when i’d clean my sheets, i’d be reminded of those cookies. it made me feel good,

like i had done something right- living life to the fullest and enjoying myself.

whenever i eat a cookie now, i throw up. it was never right. it’s not justified.
