I can feel the bones inside
the beautiful skeleton that is my mind
look in the mirror
see the fat
see the girl made by mistake
fear is crawling up my throat
take my hands
don't let me choke
bending over, just can't breathe
watch my ribs shake as I heave
The hunger eats right through my heart
burning, fighting
tempting darts
i won't be a burden, can't make me sin
ignore the fire from within
Freedom yearning through open lips
a silent scream
that slowly rips
through the fragile wall between
the different girls inside of me
who am I?
i'm not quite sure
noone cares and I know why
Ugly, useless, selfish, weak
hide and cry the pains asleep
i'll wait for it to end again
curl up inside
im not insane
fight the urges, fight the need
Where hunger fails I shall succeed.

I like this. I had a friend who went through this, and I never understood. It was a horrid obstacle in our friendship, but somehow we managed to make it through. She got better. Reading this poem doesn't touch me in the sense of being able to relate, but rather evokes a detached admiration of those who go through it and rise above it.

It's very raw and emotional, I like that a lot.
Just try working on the meter and rhyme scheme a little bit, there's a few lines here and there that seem to interrupt the flow of it.
Other than that, it's very well done. - Report As Spam

- I like it, it reminds me a lot of the poems I used to write years ago. It's sad, yet I can totally identify with it.
