Anorexia Nervosa

My conscious is alarming.
Yet I am ignoring the cry .
I look deep into my reflection,
Another misgiving sigh.

Always grasping the fear,
That lays upon us all..
Understanding its not real,
Once you have been through the fall.

The strength to overcome,
The mind to set it straight.
Disappearance of that voice,
Those dim moments of hate.

Getting ahead of the distance,
Taking your life into your hands.
Becoming a stronger person..
Bar the voice of demands.

  • *Has chills* This was very nicely written; it's a perfect example of the mind of someone who has an eating disorder. Thank you for entering my contest!

  • Very mind twisting when it comes to eating disorders...
