I know that I'm good for something

I started to like the feeling.
the feeling of emptiness at the pit of my stomach,hunger.
I lived off the pain,and craved it when it was gone.
I would purposly make myself endure hunger,
just so I could be close to becoming flawless
I knew I was far from it.
If I tried maybe, just maybe, I could reach it and be that image.
That image of perfection.
But the once I hit the amount I thought was enough, I was too late.
I had pushed myself too far.
I had carried on this strike for longer then I needed.
I was weak, and breathless, but I still couldn't stop.
It was second nature now.
This feeling was my life.


The nights I spent in the hospital I mostly thought about what went wrong.
How did I get to this stage in my life?
A stage where family, friends, school and everything else become minority.
They didn't matter.
The days I spent in the hospital I would stare at myself in the mirror
With disgust and selfpitty.
What a foolish, brainless person stood before me.
I realized that all this time I didn't need to try to be beautiful.
I realized beauty was from within
It was your charactristics, your charm, your brain that made up who you were.
People with a proper charctastics, clever charm, and a well balanced brain, wouldn't do this.
So it turns out I was beautiful,
but it didnt matter anymore
because now the image, and the mind that made up who i was, was nothing but
hideous.
