Of Pies and Lies

Oh my how many tries
How many times to eat these pies
So delicious and malicious
Bundled with their sugar coated crusts
This treat was always a must

Its filling with lies

The poison feels so good
Including the cherry that is even on top
Good 'till the last drop
When will this stop?

Does this not fill the void where hunger runs?
Will this help me feel better to forget my troubled woes?

Running out of this confectionery delight
I can't sleep as my body hungers tonight
Am I blind at what bothers me tonight?

Have I been in denial?
Do I have to fight myself?
Who am I without my pies?

Perhaps I have to go on a diet
My mind has been anything but quiet

Next time when I think about what to eat
I will ask myself if it is my need to feed
Instead of the illusion of chocolate coated dreams
And not fill myself to only break my seams

The dose of truth satisfies more than rich texture pie.
