Ana, You Have Me In Your Grip

by Jenni Marie   Oct 16, 2007


Stepping fearfully on the scales
Realizing I'm four pounds down
Still, it's nowhere near enough
To turn this wretched frown around

Knowing that it will never be enough
Insults racing around in my head
Looking at this horrid disgusting body
Is what I have now come to dread

No one knows, they wouldn't understand
As Ana whispers, "Darling, don't despair
I'm here for you, just you and me now
Always be here for you, I'll always care."

Seems Ana is constantly with me now
In whatever I say, whatever I do
Knowing now that whatever happens
Ana will help me make it through

Sure, sometimes her rules are difficult
But I know that she's doing it for me
Her words may be harsh but she's helping
To change me into whom I want to be

It's not as hard as it was at the start
Her rules are becoming easier each day
I'll do whatever it takes to be beautiful
I'll listen to everything she has to say

Sometimes she says I don't try hard enough
Leaving me alone in tears, so down and blue
But I'll keep trying each and every single day
Knowing eventually Ana and I will make it through
