(Anorexia)No way to succeed

by Bri   May 29, 2006


I sit and I wait
The minutes ticking by
All my friends eating
I stay silent and sigh
Finally lunch is over
I go get my books
I try not to look
At my best friend's sad looks
She doesn't want me to do this
I stopped eating once more
I try to tell her sorry
But she walks out of the door
I was doing so well
Eating three meals a day
I was happy and well
If only that stayed
I saw all the skinny girls
All the amazing dancers
They all looked so happy
I just wanted some answers
How could they make me do this
I thought I learned my lesson then
I got myself sick
So I started eating again
As I walk through the halls
My hunger is growing
I'm getting pretty dizzy
My quick pace is slowing
These days don't last long
The ones where you're weak
The ones after starting starving
Where you can barely speak
My days go on
Getting thinner and thinner
Making up lies
Just to skip dinner
I keep this up
As long as I need
But with anorexia
There's no way to succeed

yeah....that's basically me.

    Very nicely written. Hunny, if you realize what you're doing to yourself, and how anorexia is just going to make things worse, than you need to step up and take a chance at finding some help and fixing yourself slowly. Anorexia is an addiction, and the longer you hold out doing it, the worse it's going to be. Hopefully you get better soon. 5/5 :)
