A poem - Untitled - first I've written in a while

[Arkali]

:trigger - feelings, and not too good of ones

Hi guys,
I little about me - I recently realised I have an ED. I used to think I just had problems sticking to a diet. Anyway, I used to write poetry, a lot. I haven't written one in probably two years. So here's my most recent work. It's pretty depressing, but then I'm pretty depressed right now.

---------------------

Why does life have to be so scary?
Why can't it all be butterflies
in sun-kissed fields?
Why am I in such turmoil?
I deserve to be loved - don't I?
Doesn't each of God's creatures
deserve to be loved and cared for?
Tell that to the antelope as he runs from the lion.
Or the insect devoured by the bird.

Sometimes I feel like my life is not worth living.
What's the point - more pain?
I pick myself up so I can be kicked again.
How many times can I do this
before I am too broken to stand?

He wants to be there for us, we just have to be willing to reach out to Him. I pray you know that you are incredibly special and that this time in your life will be short lived in the long run.

I konw how hard it is to fight this battle alone. Please know there are peopple who WANT to help! Blessings, :sun
