Real Words From Real People and Recovered !
Each week you arrive
What do you see
A pathetic young girl
with nothing to be
A Skeletal figure, that feels fat from inside
That cowers in the corner and hides from outside
Nearly every minute I think about food
My erratic behaviour controlling my mood
One minute happy the next minute sad
Deep in depression and feelings of going mad
My weight hasn't changed yet
It's sure to go up
I feel like a failure and want to give up
This thing that controls me
Will it ever depart
I can't show my emotions
Not even a heart.
The dark with the night
and the sun in the day
Whatever the time
the feelings still stay
I'm full of emotion
that wants to get out
If I only I could scream kick and shout
I'm dancing in the shadows of life
No one can see me
I have no fear
I wish i would just disappear
Each morning I wake
The hell starts again
Should I eat food
Or leave it till when
I'm crying out in hunger
Do I deserve or not
I'm feeling so hungry
These cravings won't stop
If I start eating now
I'll go out of control
Having a frenzied attack
My mind rules my sole
As the hours slowly tick by
I feel dizzy and faint
Although I feel awful
I sort of feel great
The feelings grow stronger
but I must not give in
I must keep on going
I want to be thin
The passion for food
became to intense
now these feelings I have
just doesn't make sense
Although i feel tired
and I yearn for my bed
My brain keeps on working
Burn calories it said
The vigorous workout
That tortures my sole
My body is aching
but, i'm still in control.
