Him leaving, It’s going to hurt. It’ll burn and sting. It’s going to hurt. He will build you up, Like Lego blocks, Just to tear it all down, It’s going to hurt. He will convince you he loves you, Say all the right things, And he’ll still leave And it’s going to hurt. You will lay awake gasping at night, While he sleeps, While he dreams, It’s going to hurt. And I was expecting it too. What I didn’t expect, was that I Loved him more than I loved myself. What I didn’t expect, Was that I had planned for a future with him. What I didn’t expect, Was that it would hurt, It would hurt so bad, It killed me. It killed the girl I used to be.

It’s Going To Hurt
Whether a comma, or colon: Punctuation slows my rolling I need no period. When I end no Capitalization when I begin Rulelessly I flow my art   Not a single! Exclamation mark Are you not the one Who'll know? Where a question mark No longer goes Warp the structure Bend the lines Put in repeat Let emotion unwind Make yourself Your poetry's the best Be your own ruler Pass your own test Take your own road Where ever it leads Lover or hater It's all poetry!

MAKE YOURSELF
She's written with crimson red blood, Unceasingly flowing From her invisible cuts. Dressed with carefully picked enthralling wordsー Seemingly fitting, seemingly perfect But as you read between the lines, You'll be wrapped with her gloomy wilting vines. She could either be a riddle And leave you bewildered, Or she could be an answer And shed light upon you. For she's a sad poem But beautifully written. ©kg

Beautifully Written
You miss a meal, Then it turns to two, A day passes, And no one notices you. Craving nutrition, There goes a week, Those many hours, Longing for something to eat. Using the same excuse, "I'm not hungry, I just ate," The numbers keep dropping, Was sixty-three, now fifty-eight. You can't go back, People are noticing you, They say you should eat, and you say, "You have something better to do." It's harder than you think, Just leave me alone! Stop telling me to eat and drink! If I need you, I can find my phone.

The Cravings
Bones, Delicate, slender, beautiful. Cheek bones, That encase a beautiful face, A glowing smile highlights those bones, With a tint of pink. Collar bones, Which lead to big beautiful ******* That are **** and hold a head up high. Ribs, **** little bones, peering right through the skin Showcasing every small gasp, Every small breath. Hip bones, A product of a flat stomach, Sharp and beautiful, Something he can grab tenderly. Knobby knees, That have a gap between them, A gap for someone to fit in. And long spindly fingers, Cold to the touch. Bones, I want to see them, I want to touch them, Caress them with a tenderness never shown to me, Then perhaps, when I can touch the fragility of my bones, under my skin Will I be happy with my body, with myself No longer will I be the girl needing to lose weight, I will be beautiful, wanted, cared about Perhaps, even people will see how fragile I truly am, Perhaps someone will look after me, finally.

Bones
Eyes flutter while heads pound, Memories come flooding in, Someone else in the bed, Soft smirks, asking how it was, How what was? Heart and head pounds, Memories go blank, Except small struggles, Soft drunken no's, that go unheard, Still touching, no stopping, please stop, Blank, Enough, smile, It was good, it had to be, Small nagging feelings, Ignore, ignore, go away, Nothing happened, Everything stills, Voices heard, but not recognised, Shapes and shadows, Nothing real, nothing happened, Silent screams, as the world moves, World moving, but I am not moving with it.

Memories
It starts out slowly At first, you don't even notice it You're busy, you'll do it later But as more time passes you eat less and less You begin making excuses You ate a lot yesterday You're fine. One day, you lose "control." The hunger gets the best of you. You eat and eat and eat Soon after, the tears begin pouring down. And so you'll sneak to the bathroom, maybe stick your toothbrush or finger, down your convulsing throat. You relieve yourself of the pressure, the guilt, and the contents of your stomach all at once. But they begin to notice. You lose an unusual amount of weight and it all comes falling down. You hear the words... but your ears refuse to hear.. "..nervosa" "bulimia" "anorexia" Bits and pieces. But you're fine, right? Ana is your friend.

Ana
Why did you eat that? Don't you know You're already fat? Everyone is staring, At the way your skin Is swelled and sagging. No one wants you, With all that extra cargo You look 200 pounds. Put the food down And go for a run -- You look disgusting. Why did you eat that? Don't you know You're already fat?

Elephant Girl, You're Going To Crush Someone
Dreaming of walking model thin Unaware she's bones and skin She lives in a damaged brain Drowned from her vomiting pain Her insecurity torn up her mind Left her bulimic and mentally blind Always hugging her toilet beside Half dead from purging her soul inside Crying because her ugly reflection She won't give up until she's perfection

Bulimia
Nobody noticed it at first How she was losing weight by the minuet “I’m not hungry” she always said But I could see through her little white lies Because little did she know But Ana and I were also friends Mia was my friend as well Ana told me to skip meals Mia told me to purge when I didn't They say, Hungry to wake, Hungry to rise Makes a girl a smaller size “I’m not hungry” she says She rehearses that same line everyday Along with her fake smile Because she can almost convince others But convincing herself if the hardest part
