Two years
Two years
Two years
Of my life
Eaten away
Two years
Of my life
Destroyed
My thoughts
Tangled
Intertwined
I
Was
Confused
First
No chocolate milk
Then
No chocolate
Then
No sugar
Then
No calories
Starving myself
Until I was on
The verge of death
Every year
The doctor
Would be more
And more
And more
And more
Disappointed
I was tall
I was normal
I was fine
Then
I was convinced
Skinnier= Better
No pain
No gain
Always doing
Sit-ups
Push-ups
Cardio
Lying to myself
Killing myself
My psychology
And logic
Tripe
So, yes,
I am short
I am short
I'm not proud
I'm not "fun size"
I am short
And
I was wrong
