Excellence Award in the 'The Write Track 2015' competition
My friends they do not call
My parents are too sad
My mind is made of numbers
Oh no, it's getting bad
I missed my cousin's birthday
Because I knew I'd have to eat
I wish I had some friends now
But no one can help me
My hair falls out by day
My teeth fall out by night
My bones begin to rot
My skin feels way too tight
My body breaks apart
My eyes, they can not see
Anorexia,
What have you done to me?
