I wish it mattered
That you don’t miss the old me like I do
I wish I was lying
When I said that I want you
And I never asked for your whispers back
But then again did I ever let them go
And I wish that I hoped it wasn’t too late
But I kind of like the way I know
You’re here to stay
It must be nice to be my sole trophy
Knowing my soul is yours and yours only
I hope you like the view from the passenger's seat
It’s a one-way ticket to stain my memories
With the bone dust of the ones that came before me
Cause from the start
It was till death do us part

This piece came from a very dark time in my life. I was in the beginnings of recovery from my eating disorder. I'm doing much better now, but I wanted to share this. These are real thoughts, felt by real people. Anyone living with them is a warrior, and they deserve compassion. And, maybe this isn't how someone's ED works, but they deserve compassion, too.
