Anorexia Part 1

by Taylor   Jun 18, 2005


The mirror is my enemy
The one thing I hate the most
Seeing it brings the disorder
In which my body is the host

The disorder is the boss
It teaches me how to starve
I learn from this fine teacher
With no food my body will carve

It will carve into a model
Like the ones that look so fake
It makes me thinks it worth it
It's worth every pain and ache

People say I'm skinny
But that is not enough
I have to get even smaller
And for this I must be tough

The sickness is my friend
It makes me prettier every day
The sickness is my friend
Cuz it controls exactly what I weigh

I'm 10 pounds under weight
But yet I'm not in peace
I'm only sincerely happy
When my scale's numbers decrease

    I think that starving yourself is an effective way to do it but at the same time REALLY, REALLY dumb. If you do this I'm so sorry that you don't think that you are skinny or pretty enough but that is surely not the way to go with it. I know that I probably sound like you're mom or someone who gives you a speech everyday but if you do this to yourself you are hurting yourself terribly. I hope that you get over this whole image thing cause your health is definitely not worth it...YOU REALLY AREN'T. You are too, let me rephrase that WAY TOO GOOD AND PROBABLY BEAUTIFUL TO BE DOING THAT TO YOURSELF!! I know that you didn't post this to get advise on what youre writing about but I just needed to say something. I love your poem but I would love it WAY more if it wasn't true...5/5 Don't worry youre still an amazing person in my book.:)
