Eating disorder, emotional and motivational Poems
Tender Sincere
I heard an unfamiliar voice today,
He spoke with such tender sincere.
Asking me if I needed help,
That He would always be here.
The voice so kind and tender brought
such comfort to my fears.
Just hearing such a voice so soft,
I knew He had to be holding me near.
He told me not to worry,
that He'd always be with me.
No matter what my troubles are,
No matter how severe.
So if you hear the voice to tender,
In your time of fears.
Your burdens will be lighter and your
fears will disappear.
Just hold on tight to that voice,
So tender and Sincere.
And know that He means it when,
He tells you He is near..

Grasping thoughts
The inside of my head is all in a whirl
Too many thoughts for just one young girl
I grab onto a few but can't catch them all
I'm losing my grip and I'm starting to fall.
Everything in here is backwards and sad
Just observing the scene I begin to go mad
I hear the thunderous beating of my tearstained heart
It's felt too much and it's coming apart.
The mindsets are coming and going so fast
As I try desperately to make one of them last
Each one that I reach for I just barely miss
Inches from happiness, seconds from bliss.
I close my eyes and I stretch out my mind
To catch one idea that my emotions can find
I feel one take hold and my brain hangs on tight
I don't stop and look to see if it's right.
I throw myself into the concept I've caught
Not examining the logic of this single thought
I'm determined to reach it whatever the cost
I'm sure it will be worth the things I'll have lost.
Embarrassed, I keep my failures quite hidden from view
I work at it in secret and hide my success, too
I'm alone with my idea and happy this way
No one wants to hear it and I don't know what to say.
With each failure I am devastated and consumed by guilt
Feeling weak and worthless I watch my heart slowly wilt
I was not aware of the pain I'd be in
When I reached out and held on to the fateful word "THIN"

Voices
She's a mystery inside what I used to call myself
A home outside of me
controlling enough I can't say what I want.
I need to make her presence clear
scared that she'll hurt me
I can't cry out loud.
As weak as I am
I try so hard
to have her listen to me.
Can't do what I want without her telling me "NO"
I try to block out her thoughts
hiding her inside my soul.
She abuses my mind and takes what I need
kind of like the devil,
slowly she's killing me.

Clover
Trembling, Quivering like a leaf in the breeze,
watch me grow.
Watch me unfold like a tender flower whose
petals are raw and new.
Watch me peel off the dead layers to reveal
an innocent heart, that with every echoing beat grows even more powerful.
A pale unknowing heart, eager to embrace the soft light.
A heart that will withstand all sadness just to fill itself with a new happiness,
a new joy,
a new HOPE.
