Addiction

Bulimia.

A sickness created by one's thoughts and perceptions.

Something that destroys the body with every bite.

She tries to fight off the painful realizations

That are produced by her overpowering appetite.

Indulging on every type of food available,

Her body throws it up believing it's only poison.

Everything she intakes deems unreliable,

But secretly, she understands it's treason.

She used to not always be a woman with this habit.

She was a woman only with true thoughts inside her.

Love

A fear created by one's heartaches and pain.

Something that destroys the heart with every try.

She tries to fight off the potential rain.

That is produced by her hurting cry.

Pursuing every love that comes her way,

Her heart hides fearing its not obtainable.

Everyone she meets perceives to fray,

But secretly, she knows it's possible.

She used to not always be a woman with this fear.

She was a woman only with pure love inside of her.
