Starved

Felicityjones

Taking a look at this menu,
I see a list of things I can't eat.
Feeling anxiety and hunger pain,
Feeling disappointment and defeat.
Another day without food,
Another few pounds I shed.
Their going to have to tube me up,
Keep me forcefully fed.
I really want to eat,
I just want to avoid the pain.
I keep myself starved,
Weight is hard to gain.
My scale love to shame me,
I can hear the foods taunts.
I just missed another meal,
I'm uncomfortable in restraunts.
I am so terrified,
Looking like I am dieing.
Whenever they ask me "Why won't you eat?",
It always gets me crying.
It's because I can't,
I will start to feel sick.
Guess I will forever look as thin as a stick.
