"You're so skinny! " I hear
I weigh too much, I fear
" I'm jealous of you! " they say,
I wish the other thoughts would go away.
True, I'm naturally skinny.
But not in the eyes that I see
At least, not enough for me.
And yet, no one will see .
Skipping some meals,
a painful way it feels.
The hunger pains are getting normal.
I'm just their rag doll.
Tired and wearing eyes,
No one can see past my disguise.
I look in the mirror,
But the picture isn't clear.
I'm not what you see.
You can't hear my silent plea.
Looking in the mirror, it isn't fair
At myself I silently glare.
AmI skinny enough now?
I know I will get there somehow..
I will not take another bite,
Even though I know it ain't right........
