Rumor.

by Megann Lee   Aug 7, 2006


You'd never know what the words and rumors you speak of will do. Of how you point, laugh and tease, of every ounce of fat I have.

Your words, pull at my thoughts, constantly lingering in my head. How my pants are so loose, and my shirts so baggy, but you never notice.

You laugh and joke, about how I look and the hand me downs I own. About what I do, and how I act, the way my skin is and the color of my hair.

I push myself, to not eat a single crumb of food, nor drink anything but water.Yet I find that's still to much to consume, to place into my widening frame.

It started as a joke, a laugh, a disgusted glare, and a hateful rumor.But now, it's more serious then anyone could have pictured.
