Dear Jesus,

by Kathrynn   Sep 3, 2005


Jesus, please help me
I need you tonight
Jesus, please restore my strength
And help me win this fight

Jesus, take away
This wrong, unthinkable urge
And Jesus, next time I eat a meal
Don't let me run and purge

Jesus, why do I hurt so bad?
With everything I do?
Jesus, I need you to heal me
Jesus, I'm counting on you!!

Oh, Lord Jesus, I hurt so bad
With every single breath
Jesus, the blood pouring down my arms
Is going to lead me to death

When I breathe in, it burns me
Like a newly lit fire inside
And each tear shed, feels like a brand new wound
That opens each time I cry

Jesus, I need you to heal this pain
I need you to pull me through
Jesus, you're my only hope
Without you, I don't know what I'd do

    Some people think christians have such a carefree life, and that when they self harm, or have eating disorders, they are doing it for attention. i know its not true because, although i am a dedicated christian, i still had a rough patch where things went wrong. im glad you wrote this poem, because it helps people to see that we arent perfect at all. excellent poem, well done.
