Sweetness

The sweetness is alluring 

Calling me,

Trying to turn me into a sinner. 

I'm a good girl,

But I can only resist for so long

And eventually, I always give in. 

 

The sweetness is satisfying 

Finally,  

I can indulge. 

But only when no one is looking,

For it is also shameful 

To want it so badly.

 

The sweetness is nauseating 

Taking over, 

I can't stomach it anymore. 

Because sweetness will destroy me, 

And the perfect body 

I have spent so long curating. 

 

The sweetness is punishing 

In the end, 

It will always seek retribution.

Making me hurl it all out again, 

Because being empty is more important 

Then tasting the sweetness of life.
