I know that if I tried to explain
It would only make things worse
Don't tell me that i'm beautiful
That's what brought on this curse
I try to cover it up
Try to act all glad
Everytime you get suspisious
It just makes me go mad
You have no idea
Not a clue at all
While everyone is exercising
I'm in the bathroom stall
When I wake up in the morning
And I am getting dressed
I see myself in the mirror
I see im such a mess
I don't like the way I look
So I eat then throw it up
Don't tell me to stop
I'll slam my life shut
I wake up in the morning
And stretch, try to awake
I put on that one smile
The smile that is fake
I pretend i'm happy
And eat just like you
But when real life hits me
I fell I have to puke
I walk on to the bathroom
And lock the little door
And then again, I will sink
Onto the cold, hard floor

Wow. That was powerful. Good luck ont he contest

wonderful
You did a wonderful job on this poem! I can really relait -
inconsistent punctuation and capitalization. i couldnt find any particular motive behind the errors.
you tackled a darker subject matter, but i really couldnt connect, couldnt "see" it until the very end. its one of those situations where you were telling me a lot, but you never got around to really showing it. it was like rhyming plot summary to an extent.
thank you for the entry. -
Amazing
I have to tell you I am deeply effected by your poem. I, too, suffer from bulimia and I know what a struggle it is. If you ever need to talk, I am there for you. You have penned a great write here. YOu get all my applause. I hope you win the contests.
