You tell yourself you are the same as everyone around you
No one notices a difference between you and other people
No one can pick you out of a crowd just because of what you are
No one can hurt you…
Where do all of these lies come from?
At what point did you just stop trying to change yourself?
And started to pretend that you weren’t what you are
Some would even say that you just stopped caring but,
That’s not the case at all
If only you could stop caring
If only all the angry words,
All the angry glances,
All the angry thoughts
Would just go away
But,
They won’t
And they hurt you more and more
Each and every time you have to listen to them
No one is there to comfort you so,
You find your comfort in the only thing that has always been there
And you eat and eat to fill the emptiness that you feel but,
The emptiness that you feel never goes away
Feeling “full” after all,
Is only a temporary thing
And the “fuller” that you get
The “bigger” you become
And the “bigger” that you become
The more they try and hurt you because you’re different
And the more that you hurt
The more “comfort” that you need
And this long and painful cycle just begins again
How long will you let this go on?
How long will you go before you stop the cycle?
Or will you just let if go on like this?
If you don’t act now,
This so called “comfort” that you find
Will wait till you’re not looking
And stab you in the back

This poem is my pride and joy I know that it may not be that great to you but, I was able to write it from personal experience and so I believe that I have it described really well. I hope that it may help others understand it as well. This poem was written on one of my last days of school that was cool ^__^

Oh, and I know, I promised the Anorexia one...but, I couldn't find it for a long time and then I finally found the real version so, with any luck it may be up soon (if I can remember where it is now that I found it )

I use to say, sometimes, that life is a carusel that won´t let you off...! It keeps on spinning, and takes no regard of if you feel sick...
It is very well written, and you can feel the pain in not being like "the others"...But sometimes you will have to turn that thought around and be GLAD you are not like them, you are unique! :hug:
:hungry: Can you belive I got anorexia when I was younger...? Looked about the same then, that I do now! And thought myself that I was fat as a pig... It took me many years to enjoy eating and food again! I still have troubles eating in public though, it feels like everybody stares at me...!

Great job, Whinny. :3 The beginning started a tad rough, but I got into the rhythm really fast. The ending was great (why are you so good at ending things? Darn you!), but I think my favorite part was:

Feeling “full” after all,
Is only a temporary thing
And the “fuller” that you get
The “bigger” you become
And the “bigger” that you become
The more they try and hurt you because you’re different
And the more that you hurt
The more “comfort” that you need
And this long and painful cycle just begins again


It also reminded me a little of that poem that I have somewhere... the one about Faith... Remember it? Hung on the wall...

You need a picture to go with this... I will try to draw you one! This poem is just too good to go without a drawing. :3 Besides, I feel inspired.

And hey! Where is your puncuation? And holy cow, I can't spell. I'm gonna fav it. Love you! :love:

LMAO I don't know why I'm so good at endings :P it's not really something to be proud of because that also means that you're the same way in real life I would believe (hey mandy I'm sorry but, our relationship just isn't going to work out okay?)

To tell you the truth, I really loved the part that you have up there as well. It was like my pride and joy of poemness :nod: It was sort of your idea but, it was fun to right especially the first two lines of it

"feeling "full" afterall, is only a temporary thing"

I loved that faith poem :P I have it in my room :XD: it goes

With Faith there is Love
With Love there is Peace
With Peace there is God
With God there is no need.

Is that the one you are talking about?

You're going to draw me a picture to go with it? O___o is it gonna be like gift art then? =P

I don't know where my punctuation went :P or your spelling skill =P I can fix it if you show me what to correct :XD: Thanks for the fave too sis! Love you too! :love: :heart: :blowkiss:

You broke me: I should have known it when I saw your eyes were blue. Eyes as cold as ice. Eyes as cold as you.

Yeah, that's the poem. Give it back, n00b! Actually, I'll probably steal that poem and write/illustrate a new picture to go with it, and frame it so I can have one, too.

Yeah, gifty art. If I ever finish it. :D
