and my stomach screams for something
barely pulsing, my blood is slowing
my heart beats twice a minute.
but this is better then 1 calorie
and i feel my stomach dissappearing
as my bones eat away my skin
and when i stand to the side im nothing
im lighter then air
but not light enough!

cos this pain i feel on the outside
the knocks, the aches, the escapes
isnt nothing compared to my head
its scattered its cluttered

Water.
I'll make sure its distilled
Just incase
Is this a way to live they say?
I guess.
Because I'll be as skinny as I want someday.

I can relate because I know the same person emokid16 knows and he's right but great poem but you shouldn't care what people think of your appearance it don't matter what other people think think for yourself
