__________________________________________


Friend?

You want me to be beautiful,

But you hurt.

You hurt...

_____________

I feel your skinny arms grip me,

Wrap around me,

Hold me.

Friend?

_____________

I feel myself concave.

I feel myself ache for nourishment.

But your loving words are all that I need.

Friend...

____________

I call you Annie.

You're my pal,

My other half,

You are a part of me.

____________

People say you just want to hurt me.

I don't believe them.

Why would my friend hurt me?

Friend?

____________

The mirror isn't my friend.

I hate the mirror.

I hate myself in the mirror.

The mirror isn't my friend.

____________

As I look into your evil depths,

I see this awful image.

This grotesque figure standing before me.

The image isn't my friend.

____________

I'm not my friend.

Rivers flow over the rolling hills of my lumpy body.

I can feel myself ache for more,

I can feel myself die as I continue to stare.

____________

Folding under and over,

All around my body.

Annie's arms embrace me

As I sit and weep.

____________

I weep for my parents.

They must stare at this figure,

This monstrosity,

This disgusting form.

____________

I weep for my siblings,

Who get teased for having a fat sibling,

Who never understand the meaning of love and compassion,

Because they aren't shown it at school.

____________

I weep for my friends.

Those poor mislead souls,

Why do they care for me?

They're better off without me.

____________

Annie wraps her arms around me,

I feel this emptiness fill me,

Like a cup of depression and suicide,

Being stirred together with blood.

____________

I feel her leave me,

Her hand grabs a flower,

It's a beautiful flower,

A primrose

____________

She brushes the flower softly across my wrist,

Gorgeous red poppies bloom,

I feel their warmth wrap around me,

Like the spring sun.

____________

Her whispers melt my soul,

The charming words,

Leaving her rotting mouth.

I let her envelop me.

____________

The poppies spread down my arm.

The warmth becomes an entity,

A bright orb as I look into the sun,

The bright light.

____________

I hear screams,

But Annie pushes them away.

The warmth envelops me,

My friend and I.
