Bulimic pt 2-days falls unto night

by Jordan   Jun 17, 2005


**Before you read this I just wanted to say that I appreciate it alot. And yes this is true. I am suffering from bulima and this is soooo incredibly hard right now. Anyways there is a part one and if you read it first (or at all) it may make more sense. Thanks!**

I force down all the food
That you’ve placed upon my plate
I think of keeping it down
But I know that it’s too late

I run down the hall
My face a ghostly white
I sink down to my knees
I no longer have to fight

I flush my sorrows down
And turn up to the sink
Fill my cup of water
And take a real long drink

I think of what I’ve done
And what tomorrow brings
I think of my mother’s face
And many other things

Mom no longer tries to stop me
Because she knows that it’s no use
My face a constant reminder
Of this horrible abuse

I know it’s getting worse
Cause I want to throw up at all my meals
I know how it hurts when I lie to you
And how depressing that it feels

Everyday a little harder
With more struggle carved in my arms
Red marks and vomit all over
A loud cry of my self harm

Everyday I pray to God
For a miracle to come
I sit in a dark room
Singing a quiet hum

I write letters to all those around me
To see what I would say
If tomorrow I was hospitalized
If tomorrow was that day

Where I no longer had the strength
Left in me to fight
If no longer could I tell
What the hell was right

So as my struggle continues
I’ve lost all the hope that’s in my heart
And I wonder every day
If treatment I could start

And yet I sit here denying
To my mom that nothings wrong
I put on a very good act
I try to act real strong

“Mom nothings the matter
Please just let me sleep”
I try to act so pure
And try hard not to weep

As strengthness turns to weak
And as day falls unto night
I pray that when I wake
Everything’s all right

    Your such an amazing writer.. it is so sad that your going through this though. Stay strong and try and open up to your mum, or anyone that might help.

    5/5
