I.
Can't.
Breathe.

I cannot take a single breath.

The demons in my head forbid me.

They tell me I'm worthless.

Ugly.

Fat.

Useless.

Mistake.

Talentless.

Unloveable.

Pathetic.

It is suffocating.

I try and try again to breathe,

but I am forbidden.

I try to ignore them, but they won't be ignored.

But the thing is

the voices do not bother me anymore.

Because they are just saying things I already know.

I really like this book and this idea just saying.

I'm not the best at poetry so bear with me.

Love,
Kate
