truth is we all have it | poem

poetry

you need to consider

why

you have it in your life.

what you should really think

about

is the thing that rots

inside

controls you

more than enough to return.

who you are

why you go

there

rather than anywhere

else

is the problem.

you should concede

we all have

our own

version

of

it.

so, what is it?

-

everyday people

they get so easily

consumed by a need

as desperate

as hunger
