eating disorder

i look into the mirror with disgust
nothing pleases me
i want to throw up
i want to be different
i want to be thin

that's every girl's dream in this society
to "be what they want"
but maybe they should've told her no
they should've told her this is wrong
to not hurt herself
to not rip the inside of her throat
just so she can waste away to nothing

you should've told her it was okay to eat
food is good
it gives you energy
and nutrition
but now the thought of it sickens her
thanks to you

thanks to their stereotypical ways
thanks to her weakened mind
she's become a walking zombie
food never passing her lips

she hates what she sees in the mirror
she hates the look of everything there
she finds her stomach too fat
she finds herself wishing for a thigh gap
praying for thinness
hating the concept of eating
just to please you

this girl was wasting away
her healthy size deteriorated to death
she's gone now, because of them
because she wanted to be thin
to be what they wanted
for they being society
for they being monsters who owned her

((this isn't just about girls because boys can have eating disorders too. just me being a girl it's easier for me to write this personally as a third person view of a girl))
