I wouldn't say I'm screwed up... True, I hate myself... True, I get sad easily... True, I feel guilty all the time... True, I can't eat without struggling... True, I'm comforted by death... But that doesn't make me any less of a person. / / We're all more alike than you think. After all, we're all human.
My side slumped against the bathroom door My mind could only race more and more My hands gripped the door **** tight My heart knew this couldn't be right My ears were filled with a lack of sound My eyes dropped cold tears to the ground My arm finally opened the door My body hit the hardwood floor My puddle of tears was all that surrounded me My lungs were burning and I could no longer breathe My love was slowly slipping away My words could not be used to sway

If you loved me, why'd you leave me?
Why did I ever think you'd love someone like me?

It hurts so much to eat Then it hurts so much to stop One or the other Which will it be? As of now I'm 150 pounds This is considered "overweight" I want to be skinny so bad But only so others can see In hopes that they'll help me...

Overweight
Life is such a scary thing Oh, to simply think... I was happy once A braced smile And clumped mascara With positivity and self confidence I was happy then I loved myself And I was determined in all I did Refusing to let anyone down I was happy then A fake smile With no makeup and no self-esteem Seeing no point in trying to hide my ugly face I wish I was happy again I hate myself And I can't do anything right All I do is let people down I wish I was happy again Death is not such a scary thing But then I met him... I think I might be happy now

Am I truly happy?
Slowly sinking in such sullen silence As if allowing all abandonment alike Very visible verification Eludes to the epitome of emotion Maybe making myself mean much more Eventually eliminates my existence For fake friends fail to fathom fear of fearfulness Realizing reality remains Only to omit the opinions of others Meticulously matching myself Tortuous tasks tend to take time to teach to me However, help hurts the healing heart Isn't it ironic that insanity is inevitable Some soon succumb to the substances Severed skin stings as if saying "slice me some more" Alone in apparent agony Daring damsels to determine their date of death Nevertheless, we need to feel numb Enough to enjoy every endless evasion Since only screams seem to silence the sinners' souls Someone must soon save those suffering
