To Food I Must Say No

by niko   May 5, 2006


Never pretty enough
I must do more
Even if it means
Falling to the floor

Purge every day
Cut every night
I won't surrender my body
I refuse to give up this fight

The voice inside tells me not to eat
If I really want to be beautiful
Ana's pressuring me more and more
Skinny is the rule

But when I fail her
And eat too much
Mia saves me
Rids me of my lunch

Trevor says I should turn my back on them
They're only making me worse
I'm beautiful as I am
Even under Ana and Mia's curse

But they've got a hold on me
And refuse to let me go
So while I'm still this horrible mess
To food I must say no

    Aww.. that is really sad.. I hope that it isn't true.. I went through that exact same thing, except with anorexia and I know that it's hard to overcome it, and it's been awhile and I still haven't completely.. just try to stay strong & don't let something like that ruin your life! You did a great job on this poem though, it really shows the struggles some people go through. Great job & I hope that everything works out good for you!

    Good poem,
    It so hard coz they just seem to control your life.. but its not good. You need help to rise above it.
    I'm sure you are a beautiful person.
