oh my goodness...this is so very raw my friend ..i love the searching for the "it" in this poem...i can relate .."it" is always elusive, always cranks up anxieties and fears ..then depression...never is "figured ou" until one has that "aha' moment ..and refuses to get sucked in to chasing "it" .."it " has no desire to be found ..and will never let "it"self be resolved ... i love your poem... and am so empathetic with this illness .. seems an epidemic among teen women especially ... bravo for your courage to write about it ashkat ..bravo!

we get in such pain, the voice of reason is unheard as we become addicted to drugs, food, whatever...
a part of us knows better, but that voice becomes silent and the other voice screams too loudly in our ear.

exactly - and it's amazing how much noise we can wilfully silence in order to ignore our truth... read more
such a good portrayal of that exact state of mind, very convincing. it's a nice window to the speaker's world. i really enjoyed the imagery.
