Hey body is cold
Her death was bold
she didn't want to live
So she gave in
At night she would cry
No matter how hard she tried
The less she would eat
Just to fit in her jeans
Whenever she eats
The purging repeats
She takes out the razor
This time she couldn't be braver
As she pulls it across her skin
The wounds don't seem to mend
She's lost in a dark place
Time won't erase
This time she cuts a little too deep
A secret she must keep
Her heart will stop beating
She will stop breathing
Are you ready to say goodbye?

The burden of a secret such as so, I know that pain. A tough write. I love it.
We must learn to love ourselves as God loves us: unconditionally. Otherwise, indeed we are simply lost. For those friends whom are not quite there yet there’s NAMI.
