Deadly Pattern

A deadly pattern,
eat, throw it up,
eat & repeated,
her only addiction,
the one shes never been
able to defeat.

Stomach starts growling,
hungry for some food,
the toilet awaiting the next visit,
with a flush all the food goes away,
standing up wiping the vomit
off her face,
she looks in the mirror,
asking why am I this way?

Not able to keep a single
thing down,
hidden behind a fake smile,
covered with huge sweaters,
nobody ever knows,
impossible to find out,
this is her deep dark secret.

This will kill you,
it will be the death of you,
shes read on the internet,
avoiding the kitchen as much
as she can,
fighting the urge to make something,
knowing very shortly after,
she'll be running to the bathroom,
getting rid of very ounce of food,
refusing to gain a single pound.

A deadly pattern,
eat, throw it up,
eat & repeated,
her only addiction,
the one shes never been
able to defeat.
