Anorexia

Anorexia

By Raisa, aged 16

 

I hate you!

 

You make me sick

 

You made yourself part of me,

 

So well I can't divide you from me.

 

Is this what you wanted?

 

To see me slowly dying

 

To make me tired and hungry

 

To dry my skin

 

To make me loose my friends

 

Take away my education

 

My future

 

My very life!

 

Every time I try to loose you

 

You give me the puppy face!

 

But that's not how you are

 

You are gruesome, brutal

 

And cold blooded

 

You control my every move

 

You promise me true happiness

 

But give pain and sorrow instead

 

You made me feel accomplished

 

I felt in control

 

But you set me up

 

You were the one in control.

 

You tore me apart from so many people,

 

My lovable family

 

My wonderful friends.

 

You push my limits

 

And yet you are never satisfied.

 

And when I fail

 

You scar me so painfully

 

I want to die.

 

I want to rip you apart

 

But it seems like that's your goal for me.

 

Everything is your fault

 

Don't make it seem like its mine!

 

Don't give me that innocent puppy face either.

 

I'm putting my foot down

 

We're through!

 

I am happy without you

 

I don't need you ever again

 

So when will you finally leave me alone?

 

Special thanks to my father, mother, sisters, brothers, Olga, Casey, and Tianna.

Thank-you, you will always be in my heart.

 

 

 

 

 

 

I
