Eating Disorder Poetry
A Woman Alone
A woman alone
Yet surrounded by people
A woman yearns to live
But wants to give inHer soul cries for peace
Her mind pleads for silence
Her body begs for reliefShe needs to fight
But only knows how to surviveHer broken heart empty
A loss of control
Yet too much controlA woman alone
Her silent struggle
Too afraid to allow anyone in
No one strong enough
To tear down the wallsLocked in an endless battle
With her body and mindA woman alone
Will search for the light
And escape the darknessBellaDonna
