Convergence

Where Dreams and Realities Converge

Instead of losing inches,
 
I’m losing my mind.
 
INsanity takes over
 
As sanity runs OUT.
 
 
 
Instead of my heart pumping from cardio
 
My heart pumps furiously with the pent-up anger.
 
Instead of acting on my body
 
Everything boomerangs back into my mind.
 
Why are emotions always involved?
 
 
 
If only I know the perfect diet,
 
If only I did the right things..
 
Regret washes over
 
As I regret the regret
 
And the dressing room’s infinite-reflections
 
Drown me in this never-ending cycle.
 
 
 
Regretting the regret.
 
Using the anger to fuel my legs.
 
Using “determination” to keep my legs moving.
 
 
 
I’ll do anything do get all those inches off
 
Even if it is insanity, I thought.
 
But now I realize,
 
The insanity is the true problem,
 
Not those inches.
 
 
 
So now my dreams and realities coalsce.
 
My dreams and reality converge at this point.
 
Everything meets here–
 
Now
 
When the line between my dreams and reality
 
Blur.
 
 
 
At this point
 
My dreams and realities converge
 
Here–
 
In my heart.

(2015)

This poem is about my insecurities. In this case, it is my weight.
