Ana..You Lose

by Jenni Marie   Feb 14, 2008


Yet again you're tying to control my actions
Wanting to control everything that I do
Seems you just can't come to understand
That I'm no longer happy listening to you

Each single moment, can hear you whispering
Only, haven't you realized I don't want to hear?
All this time I've been trusting you implicitly
Now I'm realizing that you were never sincere

So why don't you stop messing with my head
Wise up to the fact I'm no longer going to believe
Finally I'm starting to see your true colours
And I'm wondering how I was ever so naive

Not going to fall for spiteful lies any more
Time to erase you from my head and mind
Wont let you constantly control me now
Refuse to spend my days so terribly confined

And every single time I place food in my mouth
Can't help but let a small smile start to appear
For it means that I'm taking back my life
Your twisted voice beginning to disappear

Managed to almost take away everything
Only now I'm getting my life back on track
Maybe it's time to let this battle finally be over
My mind and body are no longer yours to attack

Always thought that you were trying to help me
Constantly chanting "Nothing tastes as good as thin"
But now finally realizing you only want to hurt me
Face it Ana...This time you're not going to win

  • Omg I love this poem! absolutly love this poem =) You really caputred the feelings well. I personally can relate to this!

    I love the emotion that I could feel through your words, the relief, the happiness knowing that you have beaten her!

    The word choice you use was perfect and the flow throughout was flawless! The thing that most caught me was the imagery you created, through your words jumped the images of a young person overcoming this, and with each discription each word, yI as the reader could picture this!

    You did an amazing job!

    I love this stanza as it shows great courage, some might never understand how much courage it takes to stand up to "her".

    "And every single time I place food in my mouth
    Can't help but let a small smile start to appear
    For it means that I'm taking back my life
    Your twisted voice beginning to disappear"

    Wow, another excellent write from a excellent poet. Keep up the amazing writes. The flow was good as well as the structure, however; I felt it could of been stronger if you had puncuation throughout.

    Peace, Joe
