Scared

They say you need to hit rock bottom

Before you realise you have to climb back up

Sitting at my computer after my shower

I didn't listen to the voices and i wore the cardigan

Now I'm lower than ever

Fat

Ugly

Stupid

Worthless

Nobody could ever love you

You disgust me

I ignore them and log on to the internet

I find a website

Full of memoirs and funny relatable things about one thing

Recovery 

Memories flood back to me

My eyes pool with tears 

They stain my purple elephant pajama bottoms

Yes!

You're realizing it

You'll never successfully beat us

We'll never leave you

It's okay, we're here

I picture dark figures

Comforting me

It's sharp nails 

Wiping away tears

                                                      I'm so tired of fighting

                                                      I can't do this

                                                      I'm tired..so tired

Don't fight then

We love you

When everything else leaves you

We'll stay

I buckle over as sobs rack my body

It hurts

Everything hurts

My ribs poke my arms

My spine pressing against the back of my chair

Every breath takes more effort than the last

But something beautiful happens

As I cry

All the anger

Pain

Frusturation

Falls out of me with the tears

The claws poisioning my brain

Get looser and looser

Almost 2 years of torture

I want to be free

From this damn voice

Weight is being lifted

It's there but not as strong

My angry and helpless sobs

Seem to take over my mind

                                    This disorder is not my friend

                                    This disorder is NOT my friend

                                    You are not my friend

                                    You're going to kill me

please...

Remember... why..

We can help...

Don't forget me...
