The hunger
Silence echos like a snare drum in his head...
The hunger sets in, this pain has to be fed...
As his shaky hands cover his weary face he tries to gain control...
He feels worthless, questioning his reasons to stop the hunger has consumed him whole...
He hugs his pillow as clips of exaggerated memories run thru his mind...
He needs to feed this hunger, needs to leave all of them behind...
He cant break away reality hits him like a frigid breeze...
Breathless, he is stunned, he drops to his knees...
He is on the edge, swaying either way..
Who knows what direction he will be taking today..
The silence breaks, all that once shined in him has now surely shone..
With closed eyes he breathes deep takes in the feeling of guilt and regret feelings he can on longer postpone..
I can no longer help you little brother, to you i no longer have a voice...
you have to break this cycle soon jake, but for today you have made your choice.
............goodbye jake we will always love you
