Kathryn Rejdych - Ode to Anorexia

Trying so hard to be thin,
now my new life will begin.
Make a meal then throw it out,
so that my parents will have no doubt.
Drinking water, nothing else,
spending time all by myself.
Losing pounds by the day,
soon all my friends will have gone away.
From 100 to 95,
I have never felt so alive.
Now all thats I am is skin and bones,
my parents won't leave me alone.
'Honey you've been losing weight',
'Don't worry mom, I just ate.'
I'm not sure where to begin,
If they found out my eternal sin...
