My Personal Anorexia

March 12, 2010
By Anonymous

Food makes you happy
I feel what they mean

I haven’t eaten in a week
Finding more and more things to do
To distract me from my hunger
But my options are running out

I get really cranky
My friends and family don’t know what to do
My friend Charlie
My friend that I secretly have a crush on
Looks at me strangely

Every now and then
Someone will tell me
I look like s***
And then ask if I’m okay
I’ll them everything is fine
And I’ll try my damndest to believe it’s true
