Feast to Famine

By the end

We brought out the worst in each other

Picked our meals apart

Resentment burning high

A competitive breeding ground.

Ordered two egos for starters

And deep insecurities for main

Washed down by stubbornness.

Love, an empty plate left wanting

She didn’t deserve to go hungry!

We went from feast to famine

A dining table no longer fit for eating

Now tell me, isn’t that hard to digest?
