Ode to My Bulimia
I could feel myself fading away
As I bit into the piece of cake
All because I was not strong enough to say no
I debated and contemplated until my stomach had the last word
"Just eat the damn cake" it said
And as I ate, all I could think of was the bathroom
The porecelain chamber that would have its first meal of the day
The first of many
I can control it, at least that's what the doctoes say
But they don't know the struggle
They don't know how food makes me feel
So as I are the cake, all I could think of was how I would see it again
How I would taste it again
How I would hate myself again
But I can control it, right?
