a batle every day
a voice in my head
telling me not to eat
controlling my life
my body a constant worry
a number on a scale
counting calories in a flurry
each bite i take feels like im dying
starving,binging,purging
a cycle that wont end
my thoughts constantly urging
for me to punish and condence
beauty standards and expectations,
feeding my insecurities
a war i fight that can not be won
an endless battle in my brain
recovery seems like just dream
everything i do feels like a set back
but i hold on to the false hope

'beauty standards and expectations,
feeding my insecurities.'.......It's sad how people expect us to maintain certain standards with respect to beauty which makes us insecure about our own body. I hope you recover from whatever you are going through find a way to love yourself the way you are.
