Hungry Poison Lies
When you found me I was hungry
You knew exactly what I was hungry for
Feeding me just enough
Leaving me wanting more
Calming every craving
Not quite quenching every thirst
Tending to my every need
Always putting me first
All at once I tasted something bitter
Something wasn't right
I turned my head away
But you were there to force another bite
It was then I knew I had tasted this before
Something I despised
Choking on your poison
Swallowing all your lies
