I wish I knew who I was

by Carrie   Nov 18, 2005


"She's so skinny"
"She doesn't eat"
"She has an eating disorder"
"She's anorexic"
Are these words I hear actually true
Is there something really wrong with me
I tried to just ignore what people would say
But now I hear it way to much
And now it's making me think
Is it actually true
Do I have an eating disorder
Do I need to get help
Or am I actually fine
And just don't eat in front of people cuz I'm shy
Am I worrying about nothing after all
I really wish I knew who I was...

This one might be a little confusing for some of you... unless you know me and know what is going on...

    I dont find this confusing in the least bit. I used to be told by my mother all the time that I am ugly and fat, when I really am not, Im 5'7" and only 145 lbs. but because thats my mom I believed what she said and was so depressed. Then in April this year she gave her custody of me away because I date black guys. So I understand how you feel. Your poem may not rhyme, but its from the heart and thats what counts.
