A CRY FROM WITHIN
 

I open my eyes
and what do I see?
The world and its wonders,
they re waiting for me!
Waiting for me to live life to the full
Learning to love every moment
But my thoughts they are dull.

Numbed with the pain of hating who I am
Years of self abuse and self doubt
Feelings of worthlessness
A body abused and punished
for the love of food and
desire to break free
from unwanted criticism deep inside me.

I am my own worst enemy
I hide from the truth
Unable to cope
Unable to embrace all life has to give.

I cry for help
but no-one hears
Please show me the way
before its too late !


This poem is to help me express how I am feeling and have done so for quite a while. One day I will break through and be normal !:blush: I will keep trying !!
