My Works

I thought it was a battle I could win.

Lies were easily enough said and made

As to why I did not eat with my kin

And hungry friends brought excellent aid.

It wasn’t prom season or crazy fad,

I fell slave to it—it drove me mad.

Undefeated Underweight Champion,

Turn me sideways and hardly any shade,

I was beautiful, in control, and thin.

But one day motivation started to fade.

He noticed and asked if I was eating

Just as my resolve started depleting.

It was a stint of madness I once had,

I know I do and I should

But I don't think I ever really could.

You still make my heart sing

I know it was nothing and you have moved on

But how could those feelings have just gone

How could I expect anything different 

I've heard stories, experienced secondhand you and your "love"

Ideas that were created now have floated above

And yet if I could go back I would.

In a heartbeat I would go through it all again

Maybe this time I would get you to stay. A personal gain.
