I'm trying to be skinny.
I want to be beautiful,
no matter the cost.

I need to lose the weight
I don't eat much but it's okay,
I can handle the dizziness and the shakes

I need to look pretty
I don't know how to do it any other way.
The more I lose, the better I look
I don't want this weight to stay.
It needs to go, as fast as possible.

It can be hard at times, I know.
You see the people all eating happen it around you,
And your hunger pains just seem to grow.
But it's okay, there's water to save the day.

Eat less and work harder.
Run as long as you can even if you feel like passing out, just don't give up.
Maybe if my skin starts to grip my bones,
I won't hate my reflection as much.
These are the thoughts that constantly go through my head.
I can't forget about the ones that talk about hurting myself.
others on winding up dead,
Don't worry, it'd be way sooner
than anyone would have expected.
