The Power of Food
My mind is my enemy
The power it holds
The inner darkness
That no one knows
I smile politely
I play the role
Nothing abnormal
Just a game
The mask is on
Glued so well
I question my sanity
But still live in hell
Always surrounded
But so alone
If only the was a pill
To numb this pain
I wonder if I'm broken
No hope for her
It's been so long
I question the blur
No one can see
The darkness within
The smiles are masking
A rage so grim
The confusion I have
About who I am
Tortures me daily
I never can win
The purging carries
A sense of calm
Forcing the food
To numb the din
My body is aching
My mind is cold
The reality of life
Hurts my heart
When will it end
When can I breathe
What am I holding
So tightly within
Only can I release this beast
Tearing my soul
Piece by piece
Food is my weapon
Again the fire
Soothing the flames
That rip through my mind
Burning so sharp
Do I even own
my heart
I need some peace
From this crazy life
That purges my thoughts
With every dart
Food is the bullet to my heart ...
