The following poem was written by a young lady, Denise, who has been struggling with anorexia.
She kindly agreed for it to be placed on our web site.

To Ana, Good - Bye

To Ana, Good - Bye
There's been sometime
When I have known you as friend
But now I am telling you,
This is the end.
It's time for you to stand down from your throne
Because God is worthy of that place alone.

So many a year,
I ran to your beckon
A long winding road
Ending up in the pit.
I listened to lots that you wanted to say
And awarded you with starvation some days
But deep down inside
The hole was still empty
So I filled it with food beyond more than was plenty.

One day my eyes were opened to see
The hope you had stolen away from me.
Too long had I listened to so many lies,
'Til the day I said " Lord, I choose today life ."

Full of abundance and perfect in love
The giver of HOPE, He took me aside
I want to give you all that you need
To fight this battle with Me at your side.

Tightly holding onto His hand
We run together straight into this fight
So once again I am telling you now
This is the end, you are no longer my friend.
To Ana, Good - Bye from Denise


Thank you Denise, for sharing this with us.
