pagophagia

pagophagia: a form of the disorder pica involving the compulsive consumption of ice or iced drinks. It has been associated with iron deficiency anemia, anger issues, and sexual tension.

here's the thing about ice cubes...
eventually they melt,
slowly but surely
and quite possibly inconspicuously

so, drink your tall glass of hidden despair and inverted anguish
and with each naive sip go ahead and believe all the fallacies that motivate your ramshackle cravings,
convince yourself that ice cubes will forever be there, cool and supportive
hydrating the parched voids in your life,
but the more you blow hot air on them,
the faster the melting process becomes
and eventually you have no more ice cubes to plunder

tired of your hot air,
tired of your selfish need to suck on all my ice cubes,
I melted,
and now I'm drained
and you are too

just remember,
in your furiously frantic search for new ice cubes,
try freezing them
because It's all nice on ice alright.

p.s. I need to stay away from 25-year-old aries, the last three have not been good for me. no, they have not :( and that's right three of them...I think I have a thing.
