The Binge and the Purge
Completely consumed
Delicious disorder
I consume thee
Like you devour me.
Food is so fulfilling, when all you feel is empty.
But every reaction bears a consequence.
Cough it up now, no need to fuss
Pretend you're searching for diamonds
in your esophagus.
Once again it's over,
and I feel empty and rough
After all that I've done-
Is it ever enough?

Author's Note
I eat and I eat to fulfill my void, but nothing gold can stay, so it comes back up, so I can complete the cycle.
