Anorexia has it's strong points!

[abitdifferent]

When I was Anorexic,
I'd say "this ain't for boys",
Heartbeats thud and ankles ached,
I was dying bit by bit,
When I was Anorexic,
I was lonely but content,
fuzzy cheeks and swollen throat,
It's no mistake I'm near the end.


When I was Anorexic,
boys would smirk and girls would stare,
in their eyes I saw they cared,
but none would dare to help.
When I was Anorexic,
I'd spend all hours by myself,
dirty room and knifes at ready,
hidden in all my shelves.



When I was Anorexic,
I'd miss her more than ever,
Summoned myself to sickness,
Forever or until when,
Because I was Anorexic,
My jeans would never fit,
The whispers I heard from miles away,
made me sick of this.


When I was Anorexic,
I think I found myself,
November 2010,
Was the start of my new life,
When I first got better,
I counted my blessings I survived,
I made myself forget her,
And had a stronger drive in life.


Thank you Anorexia. I'm stronger than before.
I'll never see you again. But thanks to you I will do more.

Aw, I really like this..and yeah, eventually when I get out of this, I do hope it makes me stronger...idk, I want to be so strong one day I could actually love myself. I wouldn't have to think or say or do things. I really like this, and I'm glad it made you a stronger person once you got better, and I pray you continue! Love ya hon :)

Thank you to everybody who has commented, it means a lot to know it inspires you in whatever way! Justkeeprunning - I got diagnosed November the 3rd 2010 to be exact, scary to think that this time last year my mindset was to through lack of food.
