Cradling you,
Limp in my arms,
Bones, and yellow skin,
Poking in to me,
I beg of you,
Eat.
The sight of food,
You vomit up blood,
All over me.
I do not care,
I will not leave.
Your hairs falling out,
Stringy and weak,
I hold it in my fingers,
Shaking,
Crying with you.
I wont let you die,
You can do this no more,
I look in those eyes,
So gray, loss of life,
You bruise so easily,
As i carry you to bathe,
Its like carrying a dead baby,
And laying it in its grave,
But you are not yet dead,
Food you shall eat,
Once so beautiful,
Weight will not be your defeat.
Anorexia may own you,
Your mind your heart your soul,
But

Literature
new york meets boston
breathless
broken
and all points in between
you're
as constant as I get
you're the picture I can't paint
and the words that just escape me
so finally
an open dedication to something worth finding
more than a friend
and less than next to nothing
dear inspirational intimidation
I'm offering everything
though
sometimes all I've got is
no idea
and no way back to the beginning
but
from here on out
what
you've
got
is
forever my heart
(surrounded by always-me packaging)
with love
in shades of unconditional
I know it's not much
but it's well intentioned
and
returnable
