Hey everyone! Well, this is sort of back to my usual subject....with a twist. What is the twist you ask? Well, I wrote this as to someone else, someone that I care very much about and don't want to see hurt at all. I know they are confused about my...uh..."eating situation"....I am very reluctant to post this one.....feel free to say whatever about it. Thanks! Bel Not to Hurt You It brings tears to my eyes To see you struggle To see you hurt To see you trying not to cry I know you hate it I know you’re scared I know you want me to be okay I know you’re not prepared But it’s something you don’t understand I can still hear the insults echo in my head They still make me want to cry All those things they said One day, they’ll see me and feel bad Because they said those things Because they made me sad Because I’ve changed so much But I’ve promised myself That they’ll never have reason to say those things again When they see me next I’ll just look at them and grin I don’t mean to hurt you That’s the last thing I want to do And you know I love you You know it’s true But this is something Something I feel I need to do One day, I’ll like my reflection And so will you As I write this I have tears in my eyes But I had to tell you the truth Not lies |

It's great that you've taken the time to let this person know that you are thinking about them. Sometimes people need to hear...not just assume. I won't rip on you for the problem you have...please just don't take it too far...I'd be sadded to here of anything happening to you. Good Luck with all those ****heads.

a good friend of mine once had that same problem,and it tore me to pieces to see her do that to herself. your poem made my eyes all misty thinking of that. i know i can't say much, but please be careful...

You've shared some very emotional thoughts here Bel. The person you're writing about obviously cares a great deal for you and is concerned. I hope you are able to share this poem with them, and discuss this with someone who can help you see the beauty in your reflection that we do here. You have a wonderful talent Bel ... keep writing! Best wishes, /Kit |

I know it's hard to open your heart to other people, but I think your poem is beautiful, and if you ever need some support, or someone to listen, I'll be here. I used to hate myself and the way I looked, and I struggled with depression for a long time, but I had friends who helped me through it. God bless! *~Meredith~* I am none but the angel Who sings you to sleep As you pray to God Your soul to keep *Me |

Bel...Don't worry it will get better. I really liked the way you expressed this piece and I hope that you keep it up. Well, if you ever need someone to talk to about this email me, okay. Chel "True friends stab you in the front" |

well isabel this is a stage that i myself have never gone through...but i have had friends that have...and it hurts to see your friend slowly dying just cuz she wants to be skinny...your friends just want to help you...you should listen though cuz thats why you call them friends...cuz they are there for you when you need them the most... ~IF YOU WANT SOMETHING VERY BADLY~SET IT FREE~IF IT COMES BACK TO YOU~ITS YOURS FOREVER~IF IT DOESNT IT WAS NEVER YOURS TO BEGIN WITH~ |
