Scars

I’ve got scars.

You can’t see them.

They’re in my stomach,

They’re in my blood,

They’re in my soul.

I’m not my disease.

I repeat this mantra every morning,

But the fact remains that any decision I make is because of it.

I’m not my disease, I say bleary eyed into the mirror

I hope some day I start to believe and heal.
