Poem - I wrote
Bulimia
You haunt my days and fill my nights
Consuming me from the outside in
Your beauty just out of reach
Lies tempting me
Just once more you whisper softly
Like an obedient slave I obey
Later to rebel
The tears I cry
The promises I make
All lie broken in your wake
You play me like a puppet
I twist and turn
Hopelessly trying to remove the mask you made
I lay awake counting the minutes till you depart
Celebrating my victories and comiserating my demise
I watch helplessly as I pour my life blood into your waiting jaws
You consume me
The harder I fight, the further I fall
Two minds blend to one
Broken promises lay scattered on the floor
With pearls for tears
I draw my sword to fight again
