crave by (EM)

acute to chronic
long been necrotic
sip to kiss it goodbye

death for the pleasure
of sitting alone in my room
with nothing to do all night

pacing in circles
around my boots
the entire hour
before midnight

screaming inside
"sit the fuck down"
it has infested me
and i feed it

so simple convincing myself
that i need it
when i'm feeling
the dull stab start

searching symptom lists
wondering more if
i should race the clock

bending(?) deeper into worry
i'm in a hurry either way
i'm forgetting how many
days it has been now

in a row
i crave
the story is old
has been told again
