Don't think less of me for thinking too much of you

You
Everything about you is sad,
the kind of sad
that is
absolutely beautiful.
And I love everything about you.
If life gets you down
Have life go down on you

What is? the particles
They wouldn't have known,
We wouldn't have ever experienced them.

A tiny army
armed with tiny knives
slowly cut away at me
They cut away my skin
leaving behind wrinkles
they cut away memories
and tastebuds,
hair, color, and sensations
Every day steady chip, chipping
away on me.
The bravest move I make
is to get up every morning
The hot water of the shower
hitting my spine is the jolt
I need, to keep the army away
Steady now, hold together,
here they come again.

When the light comes
The shadows rush forward.
The light remaines untouched.

Careful, careful now
Step lively and often
Beware because
Crave
Is awfully close
to craven

i am scared
he will blow
straight through
me, and i am a
fresh cut in the
wind, an open
blister under
water, I have
not felt this
vulnerable
in a while
(c) Brooke Otto 2014
Bones for fingers,
paper for skin.
Bitterness of my struggle lingers,
I just want to be thin.

*Is that such a sin?
This is sort of about my thoughts during the time when I really hated my body but now, I've grown to love myself and I'm almost completely comfortable in my own skin. However, there are days when I'm just too scared to look in the mirror because I'm too scared of what I'll see. I don't want to live by society's expectations anymore. I'm comfortably in the acceptable range for my BMI and I'm healthy.
