A soundless roar; Sound off to the final fall, She has swamped my bone, We are hiding one last time, I no longer want to be desired, To have men only want me, Then discard me when my body, Has fulfilled their own obsessions. I no longer wish to be touched, To have oily hands measure my wrists, Then stain my skin with food, Never to feel clean till i haven't eaten. I no longer want to listen, To have them tell me its gone to far, Then force feed me till i explode, Never will i give in again. I no longer desire fullness, To have poison fill my soul, Then empty out the swollen gut, Never make me grow. I no longer need to be helped, To have others poke and stare, Then held to answer that dreaded question, ' have you eaten today?' They may ask their questions, And expect a simple answer, They may look at me and wonder, But i will never tell. They had their chance to save me, But they chose to betray me, Never listen to the things i said, What happened in his bloody bed. Now they can stand and watch, Or they can turn away for good, I don't care about an audience, I am wasting away to be forgotten. I will reveal myself when i am new, Only bare substance on view, No excuses hanging or fat dangling, But honesty eating away at my lies. I am ruled over by me, I am in control, one word : body, All that they see and all that they care, My thoughts and dreams they'd never believe. I cannot remember the day, I looked into my bursting cupboard, Then into my empty soul, And the thought dawning on me, I didn't need to eat
