Ana And I

by Jenni Marie   Oct 23, 2007


Seems no one understands
That I always need you here
To help me through hard times
To help erase my fears

Friends think you're controlling
But I know you do it all for me
They hide the disgusting truth
The harsh reality you help me see

Know sometimes I've let you down
I'm sorry for being so weak
Promise you that I'll try harder
I'll be strong instead of meek

To help shift this disgusting flesh
I'll start exercising all day long
And eat just enough to survive
With you near, I wont go wrong

The aroma of food disgusts me
Yet my stomach's crying out in pain
Images dance tauntingly in front of me
Trying to drive me slowly insane

Eaten barely anything the last few days
Hunger pains have become painfully sharp
Each one making me smile 'cause I know
Come so far, wont return to the start

Pains slowly getting worse
Tears forming in tired eyes
But one day it will all be worth it
My body I'll no longer despise

So here's my honest pledge to you
No longer will I be weak, or give in
I'll do whatever you want me to
And together, Ana, we will win
