Pancake Batter

Why do you always eat
The pancake batter when
It just doesn't taste good?
Lick it off your finger,
Make a face, and say "gross".
Then go eat it again.

It reminds me too much
Of him, and how you just
Keep going back for more.
When you know he's so bad,
What attracts you to him?
Makes you want it, need it?

I think I have found out
Why you do this cycle.
You're just waiting around
For the finished product.
Passing the time until
It's all done and ready.
