There is nothing **** romantic, beautiful or admirable In starving, bingeing or throwing up. It doesn’t make you different And it doesn’t mean you’re in control. Fish-Bone body, Spine like shards of glass, Risking a rupture each time you indulge your sordid, secret habit. Why are you trying to find beautiful words To pretty your ugly, violent acts? There are none. There is no beauty In ***** and bile, There is nothing to admire In the punching of your stomach The water loading, The blisters on your knuckles And your grey, grainy skin. I watched someone die from this. I refuse to do it again.

Ugly Defined
There is nothing **** romantic, beautiful or admirable In starving, bingeing or throwing up. It doesn’t make you different And it doesn’t mean you’re in control. Fish-Bone body, Spine like shards of glass, Risking a rupture each time you indulge your sordid, secret habit. Why are you trying to find beautiful words To pretty your ugly, violent acts? There are none. There is no beauty In ***** and bile, There is nothing to admire In the punching of your stomach The water loading, The blisters on your knuckles And your grey, grainy skin.

I know you can't help it...I can't help that it upsets me.   :-(
