The stores in this town are empty and dark.
It is cold and gray and silent.
I have been brought here in a like state, dumped here like a bag of garbage.
My soul has been poured out to so many thirsty beggers,
but there is no faucet to fill what is empty.
I am as useless to society as an old Coke can.
There are no discussions of half-full or half-empty.
I am just empty.
So what can this town give to this dried up girl?
There are no sounds. No things. No lights.
But there are people.
There are people who are bleeding out the moisture that I so desperately need.
They have a source that seems to never end.
I drink. I breath. I am nourished.
These people. They are my friends.
They have given me the answer to life.
They have shown me a faucet that never dries.
I can give and always be filled.
I am alive.
I am saved.
(*Authors notes: I was sent....to enter a treatment program for anorexia. My soul was dried up...Little did I know that I would meet the people who saved my life and changed my existence. Perhaps this poem doesn't make any sense to you, but it was therapeutic to write down the memories of the first day...) ~by wolfpackangel99
