With every bite of food I intake,
I don't feel that being full is right-
So I vomit until there's nothing there;
Don't want anything to digest,
Don't want anything in my stomach.
I don't feel hungry or pain of emptiness-
I'm so numbed by my depression;
I feel nothing-I'm not hungry.
Hunger is not appropriate for my age-
Anorexia nervosa is my target for dying;
Anorexia nervosa is what I'd rather have.
As my stomach rumbles, I ignore it;
It is jsut trying to get my attention-
I don't think it's appropriate to have
A growly stomach-so I just let it go.
Instead of thinking about healthy eating,
I focus my attention on more important stuff
And ignore the low and high pitch
Of my growly stomach. My intentions
Are to get a majour eating disorder-
If I eat, I suffer the consequences
Of making myself vomit until acid comes;
I will never allow food to digest-
I will always make it come up-
Bulimic as it is, I continue to vomit
All of the stuff in my body out,
Until I can feel emptiness by the dozen.
Emptiness is the most wonderful
Feeling I've felt since it became
The subject of my way of suicide;
I never tell anyone I need to vomit-
I just go off and vomit-bulimlc
Eating disroder showing slowly to develope
Inside of me-I don't use the bulimic
Way of getting a true eating disorder.
I start starving myself of nutrients
I need in order to live here;
Wilting slowly away into shock from
The eatiing disorder I'm slowly
Developing. Starving myself even further,
I now weigh 102-I don't care;
I continue to starve myself for the
Whole time, ignoring the growl of
My stomach; then I start the process
Of bulimic again-this time without
Eating. I vomit so much that the
Digestive acid in my stomach starts
Coming up with the water; I don't care-
I never eat anyway, I just excercise
A lot everyday and I don't eat
All the meals of the day-I
Just vomit and starve myself until
I now weigh 83. I don't care
Because I'm still not really thin-
I need to be thin enough so I
Would call myself lightweight.
The eating disorder sets in,
My mind racing with suicidal thoughts-
I now weigh 65, and I finally decide
To keep that way until someone cares;
I now have anorexia nervosa-
Dying in this life-my eating disorder
Killed me off slowly and now
Everyone will not know what happened,
Until it was confirmed anorexia nervosa.
Very professional and heart felt. Such emotion was put into this poem. Well written.
