I starved myself, to feed Anna

by JaneRethem

You think I'm pretty? You don't think I should change? Not by a single gram I won't, I promise Anna. It's my friend Anna, she's always here for me. Anna, I don't want to think, tell me what to do, Yes, thank you Anna, I'll calculate those for you. Did you say I look perfect Anna? I can maintain perfect by being perfect. I can be precise Anna, I promise, don't leave. Anna, that's a lot of calculating. Sorry Anna, you're right, perfection takes hard work. I'm unafraid of toil. Anna, I'm worried Anna, I can't stop feeling. Think? I can over think to stop the feeling. I'll gladly overthink than to over feel. You're right Anna, I can numb it. Anna, I'm craving something. You're right Anna, I will never have that. Anna, I never told you what I craved. I craved love Anna, I craved safety. I'm hungry for a meaningful life Anna. Please feed those to me. Why don't you give me what you promised Anna? You became a liar Anna, but love is blind and I need you. Speak for me Anna, lie for me Anna. Anna others want to feed me, Anna, I don't know what they're feeding me Anna, stop them, it's unsafe where it's uncertain. Yes, what Anna said, I already ate. When? Anna, they're catching on Anna, do something. Anna, I'm hungry, Anna. I've been keeping you alive to keep myself dead. Anna please, I starved myself, to feed Anna.
