That no one else is able to see
Was no longer even there
I am anorexia
living hell of an existence
It was only then that I was able to cry
with an intensity bordering on mania
at the vulnerable age of eleven
and left me hung out to dry
It will never be enough
I thought you cared
Cause that's all I feel like I'm good at
and I wasn't taking anymore

Well done, good poet!
A poem that makes sense and that is amazing considering it was built from spare parts so to speak.
I especially like the last line about not taking anymore.
It wraps it all up nicely!
