Your ugly
Your to fat
no one will ever like you
These are what the voices said. Every time I would try and fight them, But they kept bring me down.
I felt as If I was being sucked into oblivion.
I can't eat.
I try to be perfect.
I met a guy one day. We bonded. We became friends for years. Then, one day he asked me out. He said I was Beautiful.
I could've believed him, But the voice came and said...
No you aren't
Your worthless
I ran. I ran as fast as I could. To my room. I sat in the corner where darkness over took me. I was in pure darkness.
I couldn't take it anymore. The voices were to much. I cry when I wake up and I cry when I'm falling asleep.
No one wants you
You have no one
Piece of Sh*t
There are right. I am no one. No one will ever love me, want me.
I can't take it anymore.
Wherever I go those voices taunt me. Day and night. Every hour and second of the day.
Am I cursed.
What did I do to deserve this?
I guess they are right
I'm leaving
I've decided
I make the arrangements
At dawn Tomorrow
I will leave this worldWhen I am At the bridge
I was ready to be taken into the darkness, but then i see something
I see flowers on the other side
I remember what my mother said when I was a little girl.
"Everyone is beautiful in their own way".
"It does not matter on looks, it matters on what is in the inside"
I step off
And I realize She is right.
She gave me the courage to fight off the voices in my head. Every time they would try to bring me down, I would fight and say, "No, I am Beautiful. Any thing you say is not right. You are nothing. I will not be brought down anymore".
Ever since then I have stopped Starving myself, I have stopped listening to the voices, and most important of all I stopped bringing myself down and giving into the darkness. No more.
The darkness won't take me anymore. I am stronger and better. A new me. I no longer listen to what the voices say because they don't matter anymore. The only thing that matters is what I think about myself.
