My Reflection

Who is that girl

I see in the mirror

The one who skips meals

But still looks huge

The one who purges constantly

But can barely loose a pound

The one who obsesses over her image

But can't seem to reach

The perfect goal.

It feels like no one understands

And no one can see

That it's never really gone away

It just hides

In the deepest parts of my mind

Becoming stronger with each meal

I skip

I can't control

My mind anymore

And that scares me more

Than anything.

Who is that girl

Looking back at me

The one who was called fat

The one who hates herself

That girl can't be me

Because I thought

I was supposed to be skinny.
