Control

Control is what i seek in all facets of my life
control comes from denying yourself
by doing this you are shown your inner soul
your inner most hunger and with that comes self awareness

it may be a lot of hard work
but in the end it satisfies me
like nothing else can
and proves that i'm a worthwhile person

i control portions
i deny food
just to see a smaller number on the scale
and to somehow feel sane in this hell of a world that i've allowed myself to be subjected to

control allows me to gain something that no one else can give me
peace of mind
if you knew
would you run

i know how much you like control
why do you keep all your emotions bottled up
maybe its why i turned to this once again
to deny myself, so that i can supress my emotions

i don't want to scare you away
that is my deepest fear
to control my every move
so that you won't feel controlled, suffocated, or traumatized by my overemotion

overemotion is a staple of my vocabulary
my very being is encased in emotion
intellect is a by product
but emotion seep from my pores for not only myself, but for others as well

the numbers go down on the scale
making the hunger pains easier to control
and my mind harder to focus
but i think so much anyway, that this is a mini vacation from thought

i will continue to appreciate control
until at last there is no need
but in the end, it's the only thing i have to hold onto
my perfect idea of control...but does it even exist?
