a skinny desire

I remember the days where I was a slave for the scale,
When my collar bones were defined and my skin was pale.
When I tried ever crash diet in the book,
I wanted to be skinny despite what it took.
My energy was sucked out from me,
The food’s calories was all I could see.
I only consumed water for 3 days,
I ran out of ridiculous weight loss ways.
Eating only apples, bananas and only a pear,
These were the diets; I didn’t care!
All I desired was to have a gap between my thighs,
Exposing myself to internet weight loss lies.
But finally I realized that enough was enough,
I was tired all this dumbass stuff.
I took control of my body function,
Stopped it before I would began to malfunction.
I ate healthy, 3-4 times a day,
I workout normally, I listen to myself, okay?
Now I’m recovered and happy as can be,
I didn’t need to be skinny; I needed to be me.
