Ana
The day Ana settled in was the day my world stopped.
Time froze for me.
Everyone around me living and I was rotting.
Busy counting calories and watching my eyes slowly sinking deep into my head.
My "friends" meeting Ana and only encouraging her to continue her path of destruction with me.
I was dying and they were giggling.
Ana stole my life.
So scared of people seeing me, that I never left my room in fear of people seeing my bald spots.
Oh, did I mention Ana also took clumps of my hair?
Ana destroyed me but I overpowered her.
I claimed back my life.
The day Ana left was the day I finally was free
if you are struggling with any harmful patter of eating I hope you find the light and the help because living is so worth it. I love you all. -becca
I’m so useless
All out of tears
Just wanna lay here
With no one near
I have so much fears
Crippling up in jeers
“Not good enough” is all I hear
My own thoughts I fear

Cute
cruel and hideous
self absorbed huge thighs
a pity invite
watches an assembly line
screams I love you
surrounded by cubicles
another walking grave stone
another useless millennial
In democracy we breathe in
life-saving oxygen
in dictatorship
in carbon dioxide's poison
*  my friend in Canada and I have just discussed ideology
You were the love of my life
So bright
Such a beautiful light
You were important to me
Can't you see
You'll only ever be
The love of my life

Sometimes silence,
Harbours so much violence,
I find it hard to hide,
All my loneliness, shame and pride,
The only consistence,
In all of my existence,
Is my absence.
