Hope

Keep holding on.

She grew quieter

Her obsession grew stronger

Her pain got bigger

And her sleeves got longer

Her meals became smaller 

And she became thin

She turned into skeleton

Just bones and skin

She had no control

Inside was a war

The demons decide 

She's nothing anymore

She was so empty

Only feeling despair

Death being no goal

But she wouldn't have cared

Then one grim day 

Far off in the distance 

A voice said, "Hold on"

It held great persistence

The voice became Hope

And Hope picked her up

Hope showed her the truth

And bathed her in love

Slowly with Hope

She rose from the ashes

Hope fed her with mercy

And healed all the gashes

Then she became whole

As her meals became larger

Her sleeves got shorter

And her pain got smaller

Hope stole her obsession

She's completely transformed

She found the rainbow

That follows the storm

I wrote this awhile ago. It is my first poem that I was ever proud of. Constructive criticism is always appreciated. No hate please. Blessings!
