Today I Faded


Woke up barely breathing,

my body a heavy stone,

fainted in the silence,

alone and so unknown.

I ate, not counting,

no binge to blame,

guilt crawled inside me,

whispered all my shame.

So I purged the weight away,

emptied what I feared,

stepped on the scale and found,

four pounds disappeared. 

A fragile victory,

a war beneath my skin,

losing but still fighting,

trapped deep within.

Fading with each heartbeat,

clutching control’s thread,

today I almost broke,

but I’m still not dead.
