His peers at school called him Obese
His friends called him Love Handles
His family call him a little bit Chubby
His father said he's gaining weight
His mother told him he's just filled with a bunch of love
He called himself a Failure
He started with lowering how much he ate
That didn't work
Then he went on to exercise and protein bars
Didn't do much either
Then he went on to stop eating at all
The people around him would stare at him
People would constantly assault him with words of anger
But he did nothing to deserve such spite
It's been two weeks and he hasn't eaten a thing
A pound or two maybe, that's all he sees
His family's worried and decides to force their child to fatten up
He agrees, but they don't know that after he eats
He runs to the toilet just to purge his food
It's been a month or so and he's on the same loop
Eat, purge, repeat
Eat, purge, repeat
Sometimes, he justs skips the eat part and throws up whatever remains
He's lost so much weight and is finally at what most people would consider normal
But he's stuck
It's gotten to the point that the voices in his head are telling him he's not skinny enough
He's too fat
Look at what others think of when they see you
Can no longer tell the difference between obesity and anorexia
Going insane and he's becoming depressed
Cutting himself on the daily
The voices telling him to get thinner or to just die
Months have past and he's become dry to the bone
No longer Eat, Purge, Repeat
It's remained Purge, Repeat
That's all it is now
You can only see flabs of skin as if glued to his bone
His skin so paper thin
He's dying and he can't even see it
The cuts that he once had are barely recognizable
His skeleton replaces his cuts now
People are now saying he's too skinny
They're telling him he's dying
But he can't hear you
All he hears are the voices telling him to become thinner
To only be bone and no skin
He's addicted to losing the weight he once had but no longer does
