Never-ending Cycle

by ~anorexic_ballerina~   Jul 9, 2006


One day I'm starving,
Denying food and hunger.
Bones of perfection I am carving,
Love the feeling so empty.

Then it's running, Exercise so late.
Trying to look stunning,
Sit-ups 'till I'm weak.

Then I stuff my face,
Hunger takes control.
An impossible dream I chase,
Trying way too hard.

Then back to restricting,
Only 500 calosries or less a day.
Inside feelings and emotions conflicting,
I want to live but I can't.

Confused and lost,
Caught in this cycle.
In the end my life it will cost,
But this is my lifestyle now.
