Bulimia

January 12, 2011
By Anonymous

mind and body fallen apart,
my bare feet run,
mind ripping away
as my body catches up;
screaming at me louder than
words you didn’t say.

letting all my feelings come up,
never again to be found;
pouring out and
spilling to the ground.

to let me know that they
exist.

now empty as the air,
and relieved to feel gone;
giving to me
a removal of fear,
a declaration of control.

i choke on all my thoughts,
letting all of me to
crumble away;
suppressing my tears and
ignore what you say;
but knowing that

…i turned against my own body.
