Ana

by lonelynow   Apr 21, 2006


Full of poise; full of beauty
Full of elegance and grace
Still she searches and she finds
A reason to hide her face

Though her day is long and weary
And her face a heavy mask
Still she stretches herself to the limit
Makes her body do each task

And one day she shall finish
This her journey of daily pain
Still one day she shall be perfect
And Ana is her name

***

Just a note to say: I'm not saying that the girl in the poem IS Anorexia, I'm suggesting that the girl portrayed is a body inhabited by Ana. Because she does take you over.
I'm trying to get across the way Ana makes you strive on, so nobody realizes what is wrong.
I'm saying the way everyone with Ana strives to be perfect.
I'm saying the way you can be so beautiful, thin, graceful, and still be ashamed of who you are, of what you are.

Just didn't want anyone to take my poem the wrong way.

Please comment, please please please. They mean the world to me. I always return the favor.
