Requiem
Requiem
In a world torn apart,
drenched in chaos,
bleak and wreathed in despair,
I found myself.
My pain,
my sorrow,
my suffering
were becoming too much to bear.
I was tired.
Alone.
My soul hungered.
And then I found you.
Being near you
calmed my inner most fears,
contented the hunger,
ripped away my rage.
The sun shone
its golden rays,
and I saw them as if
it was for
the very first time.
And then I loved you.
However, you did not
feel the same.
Your words tortured me,
gnawed at my mind
and stilled the beating
of my heart.
I grew cold.
And then I hated you.
As the darkness and the pain
crept closer,
threatening to engulf
my soul once more,
I realized that
I needed you.
As so we began again ...
as friends.
A new stand-off begins...
Bulimia never goes away. It hides and waits for an opportunity to resurface, like the old friend you can't say no to. It's a dance that goes round and round. Mia has been off the dance card for years, but recently showed up on my list. We've been dancing for sometime behind closed doors. I've been taking comfort in her euphoria when stressed. Other times, she doesn't show up, but the binging still takes place. Sometimes I take the lead. This time I have, but only because I let another old vice return in her place. So please forgive me if you see me doing it; it's a way to survive.
