You can't talk to me
You can talk about me
     "Do you even have to ask?  Don't you ever
      look in the mirror?"
For hours,minutes, seconds
Morbidly fascinating
     "You're hideous!"
Your voice is the one in my head
Screaming, degrading me
     "Your face!  It looks like it's all cellulite"
Cheekbones clearly visible
Easy target you must say
     "You're fat"
Oblivious to my year-and-a-half long struggle
Worthless, pointless
                
                 Just like me.

Go back and read this again.  Read the first line, followed by the first after the quote...and so on, then the second, and the second after the quote....it makes sense sort of.
Anyway, the words in quotes are what someone told me today.  I couldn't believe he really said it and I thought it was totally random.  Okay yeah so I was shocked and speechless....

OMG! Someone said that to you?! *hugs*  
The piece itself is so powerful and what a lot of Ana girls go through but damn, I am in a state of shock that someone could even say that to you. The piece for what it represents is great but the inspiration for it is not.

Take care of yourself and thanks for sharing. Keep smiling, yeah? We all love you.

I cant not believe someone said that to you!! Tell me who they r and i'll take care of em  ....dont listen to them cuz they're obviously inconsiderate morons who are most likely jealous of you if they'd say such a thing...i liked the poem though, you expressed your emotions wonderfully..::hugs::

Why do I have the feeling that it's actually you that's saying it.  
For some reason, this poem gives me that impression.  
Hope things are ok now.  
Hope to get to talk to you again.

*sigh*
I hope things do get better  
I mean, well yea....that's exactly what I mean.
Very powerful piece.  

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.
