Anorexia

her voice told me we were friends she'll make me better happier she said she is the only one who cares she loves me i have to listen to her she'll make me perfect fat pig she says useless she says but she loves me so i'll listen start out small cut back no more than 1000 calories it'll get harder she says this isn't enough 500 calories 400 calories 300 200 calories control me as much as her voice does 1 pound 2 pounds 3 pounds lost more she says stop completely walk away become beautiful people say an apple a day keeps the doctor away i have to live by that weeks months they pass thin bones beautiful but i can't see she told me it'll be okay but i can't see passing out fainting falling death feeding tubes IVs medication she says this is what she planned for i'll be perfect once i'm dead because at death i will be my thinnest so i smile as she tells me my pulse is fading

I've suffered with Anorexia since 2012, and I've relapsed almost 7 times. It's not a luxury, it's a death sentence.
