Empty Spoon

I was inspired to write this after Lily Mae's poem Anorexic thoughts from a Bulimic heart. I hope you like mine :)

Been sitting in this corner for some time now,

I don't have the will power to get out. 

I am running, running away so very fast,

Trying to get away from this hungry feeling.

I am like an empty spoon;

The more and more I try to eat, 

The less and less goes in my mouth.

I feel so fat inside.

What can I do?

I look in the mirror and see fat, 

Just another layer of blubbery.

I am never going to be a Kate moss, 

I'm never going to be Miss America. 

I am an empty spoon.

Nothing goes in 

Everything come out 

I am so fat inside 

I'm a full time overdose 

There are days I refuse to eat

Days I need to binge

While I watch my body unhinge 

 

Don't you worry

I'll be skinny soon enough

But, your eyes still cry for me

And your lips still frown

"No more food will go down"

Says my stomach 

In revolt with me throat 

As my soul begins to float 

I am an empty spoon 

I am so fat inside
