Anorexia

by always the same   Jun 7, 2010


Look in the mirror
My face still not thin
I think to myself
Will I ever win

Look down to my stomach
Yet to see my hip bones hit my jeans
I want to be skinny
But what does that really mean

My face is ugly
Theres too much baby fat
My arms are huge
No shirt will fit that

When I walk down the street
People stare like I'm a freak
I'll never be skinny enough
I'm soon going to break

I'm sixteen years old
93 pounds
I need to lose more weight
So I'm not ashamed everytime I look down.

    First and formost, I am commenting more so on the subject of this poem. If you don't learn to love yourself you will never be able to achieve this perfection you seek. If you are 93 pounds- it is thin, regardless of height even. And if you are tall, it is possibly very unhealthy. Beauty isn't in weight, or the size of pants you wear. Beauty comes from within. And even though I have never seen you, I can tell you are a very beautiful and talented young woman. I have nothing bad to say about the poem itself and admire the fact it was short and definitely to the point.
    Anyway this is just my opinion.

    Good read and good write-

    No Name.
