Mama's Poem

 

Good bye Ana,

For seven years you have been my best friend. I met you when I was nine, and was raped by my cousin. But you were just an acquaintance, I didn't really pay any attention to you.

When I was twelve, I was told that I had a big stomach, and that I was no longer the skinniest person in the class. By no means was I fat, but you made me believe that I was. You made me skip meals, lie and say that I was going to the library.

Ana, you took away my life. I just graduated from high school last week, and now that I look back, I see that all my high school years were wasted. Not once in those four years did I ever eat breakfast or lunch, I just watched others eat. I missed out on parties and on everything, because you told me there would be food there. But you know what. I can't take it anymore. I'm tired of eating dinner in front of my parents and then going to throw it up at the supermarket.

I am not a whore. And I don't deserve to die. I know there will always be a part of you in me and I will probably always be concerned about food and my weight, but I am going to try to kill your voice. I will win. I deserve to live and I am not worthless.

Good-bye ana.
