I Am Fat

Note-another  deeply personal piece. hate my body.  always have. Think I will forever.

 

Mama and daddy

I blame it all on you

Every last  misterable ugly pound

Your sin

Your unholy cross to bear

To burn in Hell for

Wherever you are now

Dead or alive

Kept me so sheltered

Indoors all the time

I never had room to breathe

I never had any friends or love

So I ate my love

Stuffed into my hungry mouth

All the feelings of straving heart

 

I wanted to dance

But you never gave me the chance

I was a prisoner

In a house never my home

So afraid

You would lose me

You put upon me

Invisiable chains of doubt and guilt

And the fear

No one could ever love me

Not as much as several generous helpings of dinner could

And so you watched as slowly I killed myself

Digging my lonely grave

With a knife and fork

 

Child abuse to the extreme!

I guess the hitting and the verbal taunting were 't enough

You had to go that extra step

Make sure your only child

Grew an  ass mile                                                                             

Forever erase

An innocent smile

Thanks alot mom and dad

For all the good grades

Instead of the love I craved

I got fed

The reason today

Because of you

Your adult daughter

Wishes she were dead!

 

You never loved me

How could you?

When all you did was overfeed and underlove

Scars were left

Ones that will never heal

No matter how many  head-docs I talk to

No matter how may weight loss plans I go on

Nothin is gonna work

No one is gonna ever magically heal me

 

And that mama and daddy

That is the core reason

Of my eternal unhappiness

Now if you'll excuse me

I hear the dinner bell ringing

Forever ringing

Calling this lonely fat girl's name
