Hunger

by Shayla
(North Carolina)

Hunger is like the jealous peacocks showing off their feathers,
Just to attempt to find what they desire
Hunger is like the living form of a dragon,
Consuming and destroying all in its path

Hunger is like the sight of what you enjoy the most
Disappearing in front of you and asking for more
Hunger is like the untamed fire.
Unafraid to burn you

Hunger is like the stray dog,
Fighting for survival
