I promised
I promised it would stop
the razors would be tossed in the trash
food would slide down my throat
three times a day
I would be seen
outside my house
I would spend time with friends
I would do my work
and I tried
I tried
but the promise is broken
once it gets dark
and I have nothing to distract me
from the pain, the emptiness
anymore
