Starving, so malnourished,
It was beauty in my eyes.
I wanted to just be normal,
By believing my own lies.
I'm scared i can't go back now,
Go back and face the truth,
That I'm truly a beauty,
I don't need to puke.
My sweet addictions,
They're killing me,
I'm fighting their grasp,
I want to be free.
One step at a time,
We'll make it past,
Just keep pushing onward.
And take off that mask.

This
reminds me of my friend who has an E.D.
he pretty much passed out in school.
everyone tells him he needs to gain wait
and he refuses to beleive us.
he just...keeps going.

I liked this
It did seem hopeful and was very frank
I could feel every word, the little ones and the ones that were straight there and to the point
I enjoyed reading
Well done, this made me think
The last line couldn't have been better!
I love, I love
Thank you SO much!
