Slowly killing herself in a hidden suicide

Folder: 
2004

she takes the food and eats and eats

all of these things seem like treats

she hasn't eatin anything in so long

and she couldn't keep herself strong

she had to give in and take in food

to her it seems really unfair and crude

she doesn't want to gain anymore weight

she feels fat in her twisted mind state

she starves herself until she has to eat something

but until that time comes she eats absolutely nothing

she doesn't want to get help, she doesn't realize her fall

she doesn't know, she doesn't think she's got a problem at all

food becomes her enemy but only on the outside on her mask she wears

on the inside her enemy is something deeper something hidden that she bears

she eats and eats and then purges to get it all out of her body

but no matter how thin she gets she still thinks she's fat it's all she sees

she is slowly killing herself and starving away all of the pain

but really she isn't solving anything all she is doing is driving herself completely insane

This is so beautiful. I used to do that. It's either don't eat at all, or throw it all up. You know?
*hugs* I love this poem.

this poem is so sad and true i 've seen milions of people starve their themselfs to death for what i don't know. i've always believed god teaches us lesson in everything we do wheather our choice be good or bad. i believe god wants to always keep our open so we can do our best to out of harms way and we don't miss anything i hope your friend gets help that that they need if they haven't already

I thought this poem was great and the message was powerful and clear. I think that it's awesome that you wrote about it. Did you go through this? I never did, but I did write about it. I'd be honored if you'd read my poem "Twenty Pounds" and comment on it. Thanks

Nice way of expression there. you didn't try to hide what you we're saying bhind any secret messages. I loved that. And this poem! But you should eat stuff...food is a good thing.
