  • This is such a beautiful poem, my friend who had an eating disorder made me a book of her thoughts on it and included this poem (she credited you of course) and i was so touched by it, i read it over and over. So on behalf of my friend and I, we thank you.

  • @eliotfan1 - Thank you so much for the kind words and for telling me. Thank YOU.

  • This poem is so powerful hon! I so needed to hear it. Is it ok if I post a transcript of this on the forum at Beat? It's the UK's eating disorders charity. I know everyone on there would love to hear it. I hope you're doing well xxx

  • @attemptingfreedom - Thank you. :) It's a very old poem. I don't mind if you post it as long as you credit me as the writer. My name is Arielle Lee Bair. I can send you the written version if you would like, as it has many italicized and bold wording and is written in block poetry style all my own.

  • HI dear....this poem is soooo nice! it's so encouraging and indeed i can sense that fighting spirit in the words and in your tone as you read it....you're a wonderful girl who have so much more in you.....i pray that you will continue to find strength to fight this....Press on my dear..Love, LIng

  • Thank you. I'm actually recovered and an ANAD eating disorder support group leader. :) So no worries.
