Poems Of A Beautiful Storm

Numbers.

Anorexic: How many number of pounds do I need to loose?
How many number of miles do I need to run?
How many number of calories do I need to eat?

Depression: How many more number of therapist do I need?
How many more numbers of lonely nights with shrieking thoughts?
How many number of cuts do I need till I die?
How many more number of people will not tell me I'm real?

Bulimia: How many number of times do I need to throw up?
How many number of minutes can I hold it?
How many more numbers do I need to eat?

Perfectionist: How many numbers of people to impress?
How many number of times can I not mess up?
How many more numbers of people can I fool?

Humans: How many number of years will I live?
How many numbers of friends will I have ?
What number of money will be the best?
How many numbers of people will put me down?
How many number of people will let me go?
How many number of flaws do I have?
How many number of rights do I need to correct a wrong?
How many numbers of 'I'm fine' do u need to blind others?
How many times do you put yourself down?
How many more number of hateful remarks do I need to hate life?
How many more number of times do I need to prove  myself?

"Numbers don't matter"
But how many number of times do you believe that?
