My Eating Disorder

by WintersAngel   Jun 17, 2013


I look in the mirror
Then turn away in shame
An ugly, stupid fat girl
Sadly looks the same

Go away food
You are nothing to me
I will not eat you
Come on now, can't you see

I am so fat
I hate the way I look
I will be skinny someday
I won't eat anything you cook

Can't you see
There's something wrong here
I can't look down at that scale
The number is what I fear

    Reading this makes you appreciate things.

    We can read the pain you are going through in such a small short poem. It has plenty of depth behind it.

    I wish you happiness angel, I really do.

    I like this poem because its based on reality. Sadly a lot of people go through this and everyday they wake up more and more sad.

    What we perceive is not what see. We all think we are fat when we are not. Eating disorders are terrible things we go through in our lives. I like the mirror part though because that is who we see everyday a shell of ourselves. We always think think the reflection is the better half but yet it is exactly the same. Most food is bad really but I love the way you describe it. Its not something ee want to eat when we feel down. Too bad food doesn't care about our problems it would be so much easier.

    I like the way you worded the thitd stanza. Again in our minds we think we are fat but really thats just the disotder we feel. You may hate the way you look now but someday you will over this! The ending is good because yhe scale is always something we fear. There iis nothing wrong though because we feel the way we do. Its amazing how you told the story and that alone makes you brave. You are beautiful the way you ate. 5

    I once live in such an illusion over my low literary/writing, and academic status. But I never forget to remember what my literary master Christ Mayor told me then "pick it up and throw it in the waste bin". That was for me then, now it is going to you Angelofdeath. You are not ugly, neither is your size a matter of misfortune, ok?
