Nothing to Gain
My jeans are fitting looser these days.
I’m hungry yes, but I refrain.
I see my food six times a day.
Three times in a different way.
My peers don’t notice nor do they care.
I can’t help but think “Is anyone out there?”
My stomach rumbles, grumbles “More.”
I hush it up, I’ll win this war.
I must be thin,
This is the battle I will win.
I throw the punches,
But my arms get weak.
In this battle, I will lose.
I am the one being abused.
I've trapped myself in this pain.
I soon realize there's nothing to gain.
There is no one to blame but myself,
But now I know I must get help.
