Something in me wants to go back
To the time when water was all I needed
And sustenance was an afterthought
A thought of how long can I go without
Of how baggy can these jeans get
Before my body finally gives out

If only we could answer the question: why?
Because it gives the illusion of control. If one cannot control what happens to them, they at least can still control what they do to their body themselves. It doesn't fix anything in the long run, in fact it makes everything worse, but it does give some temporary relief and sometimes that makes it worth it no matter how sick it is
Interesting, I believe in surrender.
Hope you find your way x.
