4 o’clock cravings

She’s up at 4 in the morning

Couldn’t ignore the feeling any more

She needed something sweet

Something hot

Something to make it through

To stop the feeling

That woke her up too soon

She poured a cup of coffee

Added a bit of milk and made it sweet

Then reached for the cookies

Peanut butter and chocolate

Heaven help her

Cause she can’t help herself

When there’s a hunger burning inside her

All those good intentions and promises go right out the door

She vowed to make up for it

By doing twice as much

Working even harder

To counteract her 4 o’clock cravings

Lord knows she tries

But she’s only got one life

And if this is one of her vices

Well, heaven help her

Because she can’t help herself

She’ll drink every last drop

Lick her fingers till all trace is gone

Then slide back in

Between the sheets

Satisfied for the time being

Until she wakes up

Craving something else again.
