It makes you feel good...for a while

Filling the Void

Gluttony is tricky, it makes you feel so nice. As the food slides down your stomach, there's no need to think twice. People look and judge you... "How disgusting!" they all agree. Not realizing you are trying to fill a hole, where something used to be. You keep on eating faster, just trying to fill the void. It doesn't seem to be working... another pie you have destroyed! It's two o' clock in the morning, the refrigerator hums. That chocolate cake I have been saving, knows that I will come. As I sit down at the table (my chocolate cake and me) I'm also joined by my enemy, whose name is Gluttony. Tomorrow is a new day, to wash away my sins. I pray each day that something changes and moderation wins.
