My friend " Mia"

People despise you,

and they warn us about your effects.

Yet they don't understand how close we are,

nor the comfort I get from being your friend.

We've known eachother for four years now.

Sometimes you go away for awhile,

other times it seems like you are here to stay forever.

Whenever I do call on you,

your always there for me and I feel great.

It seems like I can control you,

but I know it is you who truly has all the control.

What will I do with you? Can I ever let you go?

I think deep down I know the right answer,

but right now I can't seem to choose.

Part of me knows we shouldn't be friends.

Yet another part longs for your company.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

This is about my eating disorder that I have had for the past four years..on and off...I refer to it as my friend "mia" because mia is short for bulimia for those of you who didnt know.

It's not quite the same thing, I know, but sometimes I've felt like depression is my friend even though people kept tossing pills and shrinks at me.

Anyway you obviously know all I could say against this so-called friend mia already so I won't say them ;p
