Rubber Band
-
Pulled from both sides,
so close,
but yet so far.

Hunger dictates my movement,
my need for nourishment,
overtakes my body.

I'm spread thin,
peanut butter on bread,
but there is too much jelly.

I'm drowning in raspberries,
still so hungry,
but I no longer want it.

I change my mind,
snap back with force,
then I think, I was so close.
