I Wish I Was Skinny

By eloise2006

sometimes i wish i was skinny

i wish that my clothes were too big instead of too small

i wish that i could let my arms breath

that my legs could be free from all the pain i put them through

trying to fit into sizes too small

because thast the only way i feel pretty

the only time i feel pretty is when i'm hungry

and i know that sounds bad. buts its true.

maybe im being over dramatic

maybe the decisions i make are stupid

but sometimes i iwsh that i would shrivel into half my size

that chocolate and crisps werent so tempting

that people in society werent so judgemental

that they learned to keep there stares to themselves

that being pretty wasnt based on looks

that people got how i was feeling instead of phuaing me away

that i could get some help without a diagnosis becayse maybe with a diagnosis people would understand what's wrong with me

then maybe i would know what was wrong with me

but getting that diagnosis means leaving my house

which meaning leaving my bed

which is something i'm not yet prepared to do

because once you leave all the whsipers and the stares start

and there is no way you can control them but maybe if i was skinny i could.

Author Notes: sorry i havent been posting a lot, ive started college and didnt have much time. But i have a lot of new poems to upload.
