untreatable disease

laying over the toilet

perspiring at the temples

acid burning at my throat

curled in a ball

pain clenching my stomach

doubled over on the floor

thoughts running through my mind

wanting to fade into perfection

obsessed with appearance

not caring about the consequences

wanting love

wanting happiness

this is the key...

this untreatable disease

    Amazing

    I can relate a lot to this, it really speakes to me. Great poem.

    • Thanks. Sometimes it's really difficult putting yourself out there like this. It can be scary letting complete strangers into your world and giving them that chance to judge you. But knowing there are others out there suffering the way I am...it kind of lightens the load and makes me feel better about putting my life on paper. So, thank you =)
