Confessions of the Broken-Hearted [Excerpt #1]

[cthrnearnshaw]

Often times, I need to force myself to eat. Otherwise I won't. I constantly have to re-acquaint my body to the taste of water, otherwise it won't drink. Sometimes, my lover (bless their soul) has to force me to eat. I listen. 

Sometimes, my brain doesn't want to listen. I tell it to shut up and eat. 

My life has been a constant process of alchemizing my love into personal power. 

My life has been a constant process of achemizing my pain into personal power. 

My life has been a constant process, and often times I feel like I am failing to live up to a standard that shouldn't be placed on anyone.
