PrettyThin Journal Post New Entry

Skin and Bones

Posted by Wishfulthinking on February 2, 2012 at 1:30 AM

This has been the last few months for me. My attempt to recover because my loving boyfriend who never cries actually cried when he told me how much it hurt to see what I was doing to myself. These have been some of the hardest months of my life and I'm still very underweight. I will not lie, I have no recovered, but I have improved slightly.

Please feel free to give me any feed back, good or bad, that you wish. I would like it to be the best it can be and I will not (I will try not to) take any of it personally :)




Hands shake as I reach for a blanket

Dinner sites untouched, growing cold

Body shrinks as I sip water: the cure

Mirrors covered in paper as black asthe sky

 

Words become interchangeable,

Twig and log are intertwined.

The two of us are interacting,

She'll always be inside.

 

Hands shake as I reach for a jacket

Dinner is thrown out, just like I wastold

Body balloons in front of the mirror

Mirrors show nothing but the darkness that's inside

 

Words become interchangeable,

Twig and log are intertwined.

The two of us are interacting,

She'll always be inside.

 

Hands caress my body, so bony

Dinner, through tears, is fed quiteboldly

Body becoming healthier, more pure

Yet mirrors cannot hide the lies

 

Words become no longer interchangeable,

Twig and log are no longer intertwined.

The two of us are no longerinteracting,

Yet she'll always be inside.
