Can't you see it on my face,The tears etched into my skin from nights I cried myself to sleep,My pale skin that's turning white from not eating, Can't you see it in my eyes,All the tears I've shed,
Can't you see it on my face,The tears etched into my skin from nights I cried myself to sleep,My pale skin that's turning white from not eating,
An apology Letter to My Body
Dear body,
I am sorry
For once hating your small Asian eyes
And your mildly yellow skin color
because everyone around you was white
shame courses through my veins as if it were
the adrenaline i lack
that familiar sour taste in my mouth
and my head resting against the toilet seat
Food was always troublesome
I never had a favorite
My portions had to be smaller than theirs
This body needed to be thinner
Food became a chore
