You think you're no good
And that you'll never be enough
I never though you would
Go that far and that rough

When you look in the mirror
You see someone with little progress
Someone who sheds too many tears
Someone who should eat less

So you hide away
And ignore the hunger you feel
You break every day
but you try to keep it all concealed

I wish you knew
How beautiful God has made you

I have a friend (whose name is NOT Casey) who has an eating disorder. She's very close to me, and I hope no one else will have to suffer like she is.

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."
