Eating

by katie!   Mar 7, 2005


Watching myself as I eat
Staring down at my two feet
Stuffing food into my mouth
My new way of getting out

Eating all night and all day
A short while when I get away
Stuffing myself till I burst
Making me feel even worse

Constant thinking about food
Greedy thoughts control my mood
When can I eat once again
To escape from all my pain

Chocolates hidden everywhere
In my mind foods always there
I have to eat all of the time
Food, food, food Its mine all mine

Stuffing myself to forget
The days the people I have met
Forget my time at my old school
Forget the fact that I'm not cool

Eating, eating constantly
Getting fatter look at me
Skinny people pass me by
Not noticing how much I cry

How I eat to escape the fact
That I am ugly and fat
Pretending that I do not care
Pretending that they are not there

Wishing someone would love me
Beautiful I long to be
Compliments I never meet
So once again I begin to eat....

    hey katie..
    I sort of understand.. I am the opposite.. Im anorexic.. But I understand in the same sense food controls you and chagnes your mood and all of the sadness involved with it constantly consuming your thoughts..
    Very touching and nicely written please check out some of mine, then you can see too whats its like in an anorexic mind...
