TT #5: Celestial Satisfaction

The first time a man remarked that I ate too much, I suspected it was because of the color of my skin. Since then, I’ve never stopped thinking about that statement. It haunts my waking days and it makes me feel terrible. But I can’t help that I’m always hungry.

So I eat. I eat and eat until I shouldn’t be able to eat anymore. Then I eat some more.

When I think about what he said, my heart clenches. And guess what I do when I feel bad? Eat. These days, I don’t know if I’m eating because I’m hungry or eating to fill the void. Either way, I’m eating. Life’s hard out here for a black hole, tucked away in the furthest parts of the galaxy.

Nobody gets close enough to really know me. But everyone still judges from afar. I will never be satisfied. 

Prompt: I will never be satisfied.
