To Eat, or Not To Eat?

Making excuses; not feeling well, ate before arriving

Not being plain like everyone

Being able to soar, light as a feather

Capable of dodging rain drops, fitting into a size small without ing and ping

A little will power is all it takes

Never hot in the summer, no need for air-conditioning

Confident enough to wear shorts and tight clothes in public

One step towards the goal, feeling capable of doing anything, only when becoming lighter

When all of the numbers are smaller

Never have felt better in a lifetime

 

 

This is an addiction

Feeling cold and tired, all of the time

The only thing to think about is food and calories

Failing grades due to the lack of energy

Everyone is always angry, accusing of being put through so much

The scale and measuring tape have basically taken over life

May not pass out today if there will be eating

May not have a bloody nose, no coughing up blood

The smaller the numbers are, the easier it gets, the more intense the ritual becomes

There is this voice saying 'Hang in there for a bit longer' 'Not good enough'

Must. Not. Eat.

Where is the end?

This is actually my 'redefining shakesphere' poem for my honors English class. It had to be a personal thing, and I chose not to write about my friends' passing.

Does anyone actually think this is interesting? If you think it is not good please  comment saying if I should take it down. I read back at my journal entries (I have not written in a while due to therapy and school) and it gets more sensative in every page...

Would it be cool if I wrote all about the EPIK HIGH concert in Seattle? Please share what you thought if you went too...
