Free of It

Contributed by Bubbles02 on Tuesday, 6th May 2008 @ 09:45:23 AM in AEST
Topic: selfstruggles

There is something inside this body,
Eating away, ripping apart everything badly.
I hate it, yet I love it with all my heart.
It had a mind of its own, tearing me apart.
I want it to known, but it won’t let me tell.
Fills me up with fear until I can’t breathe; but it won’t let me yell.
I open up my mouth to confess,
But it steals away my voice before I can get out what I want to express.

There is something inside of me,
Something no one can see.
I want it to known,
So that for my sins, I can atone.
But it won’t let me; it has so much power.

I have an eating disorder.
And I am afraid to tell someone, for that would I mean I’m a failure.
I couldn’t fight it on my own,
And I want it to be known.
But someone needs to put it in its place,
Tell it that me, it can no longer embrace.
I want to be free of it,
For my once clear path has been unlit.

Bubles02,

If this is a true write. You have won the first battle of the war by admitting the problem exists. That takes great courage in itself. The next step is to understand you are NOT a failure in any way because of it. Let your family or doctor help keep you on the path that is well lit.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
