Breaking Out
By: Kim Hembry

Living life in the shadow of ED
I don’t want to get up
I’d rather stay in bed
Too many thoughts rage
And run through my head
Living life behind ED’s mask
I long to break free
From this house made of glass
The journey brings tears and pain
How long will it last?
Living up to Ed’s strict demands
I’m never enough
I throw up my hands
He stole so many dreams
And thwarted so many plans
Living enslaved to ED’s lies
He speaks so loudly
What I see I despise
Torment and hate are his tools
To try and seize my life
Lies, masks, demands, and shame
I long to be rid of them
So my life I will claim
I will press on in recovery
And I will never be the same
