I Eat

Eating food is what I do best

It’s the perfect way to make me forget

Pizzas, burgers, sausages and chips

I scoff it all down until I feel sick

Because it’s better to feel full

Than empty inside

Even if I feel worse than I did

Before I ate all the fries

 

People say that eating chocolate releases endorphins

That make you feel happy

But it doesn’t seem to be working

Because as the velvety taste of chocolate melts on my tongue

All I can think about

Is that eating three chocolate bars is wrong

 

But I eat them anyway

And then I eat some more

I probably won’t stop eating

Until I can’t fit through the door

I like this because I love to eat too :)

I like the rhyme scheme and topic here. I myself went the other way. I starved myself so I want to say I don't really know how this feels, but in the end they kind of feel the same sometimes. That is just my opinion though. Nice poem, love it :)

This is so in your face. This is not an easy subject to write about nor to admit to. Bravo for doing such a great job.

Food. Yes. Yes.
I seem to relate to a lot of your writing, wonderful again. We all love food, especially what we know isn't good for us! Good and bad in everything, right? ;)
Good job. xo

Food is a companion for some people - easy to do too! Now I fancy some chocolate lol x

I understand this poem. Food is a pleasure that won't break our heart. Thank you for sharing the entertaining poetry.
