Ana

You never used to be like this.
You used to enjoy life.
But not you only enjoy pain.

You prepared yourself for your future.
For what they were goin to say.
You knew what you had to do.

You starved yourself of the blessings
You crossed the line and into hells gates.
This is what you thought you wanted.

Popularity is just the beginning.
You never thought it would get worse.
But yet it has.

The thoughts.
The words.
The voices.

Decapitating your mind.
Making you believe what you thought you've done.
And what they want you to do.

Problems begun to form.
Your dizzy, Nautious.
But yet you strive to let Ana survive in you.

Its gone from 3 meals.
to two.
to one.
To almost none.

Is popularity really worth it.
Is it worth being 20 pounds lighter.
Is it worth losing the ones you love.

Tonight Ive had enough.
Its the only way to make you realize.
Im through with and your best bud Ana.

Like models?  Is she a model?  My friend became one and now she seems to be a little confused and doesn't seem to realize she is only one person.  I say her voice sounds like a glass or brass snake, not to mention the new "personality."  Cool poem.  I like the three line method you used, which is odd cause I usually just refer to the content.

very good poem.. would i be right in interpreting that her best bud "Ana" is in fact the illness anorexia? because that's how it seemed to me.. like you were leaving this girl who seemed to want to become a model, but trying to get there, became obsessed with her weight, and with that came her best friend "Ana"

very well written
