[Fail]ure

You're so motivated
You crave it
That skinny waist
& pretty face

You're strong through day two
Day three comes, and you're suddenly done
You'll never get rid of the gut
If you keep giving up

Life gets chaotic
& you get stressed
But you just have to remember
When you're thinner, it'll be better

So count those diet pills
& stock up on salad
This is the last time, you promise
Don't you finally want to look like a goddess?

5'10 & 200 pounds
Such a huge buldging cow
Stop the binging, & overeating
Begin the resistance, the control
Empty is the new full
& 150 is the perfect weight for you
So stop giving in & finally get thin

    Oh, I've been saying that for years. Just to get those last ten pounds off. But, you can do it! Believe me, I did. Worst thing though is you never really believe it will stay off. lol, the terrible truth.

    This is so relateable, dear poet,
    and you capture the story all too well
    there is brilliance in your words,
    but ache also.

    Well done.
    I wish you all the best

  • I think this is something many people can relate to - not just the eating disorder aspect of it, but just the struggling with self image.

    You wrote this well and with detail. Well penned

    Hey girl! I know the feeling of finally writing a new poem, just as I know the feeling of what if feels like to feel like a failure when you can't go more than a few days. I am praying for you tons and bunches. You are beautiful This poem expresses your emotion well, the feeling of hatred towards one's own ability to control. God Bless.

  • hey I find your latest poem here to be a struggle within ones oen depth and perceptiomn of how someone sees themselves. in this case you're taking an above average height female who is feleing the pressures of todays world and tryin her hardest to become a skinny barbie doll just to blend in and be accepted by today;'s society as a whole. the sad thing the perosn needs to realize is we are all different and we are all unique. I don't believe that this whole thin is in crap is truly the way to blend into today;s society and be accepted. a female should be accepted for who she is and not how she looks acts and likewise especially not feel the pressur eof havin' to be thin. if she were to choose to lose weight then good for her but one has to realize the first step into becoming "thin" is to mentally undo everything about yourself meaning to not see yourself as a "fat pig or cow" but as a human being & from there only with hard work and less junk food persay can one acheive the ultimate goal they set themslves out for. a wellbalance dmeal plan & great exerciuse goes a long ways too. in another way from me seien this write from you she is strugglin with her ownself mentally because she sees herself as a fattie who doesn't belong ect. but in actuality she is reahin for more food because she feels stressed to the core and unwanted unappreciated by others round her. my advice overall to anyone strugglin with this kind of disorde ror better yet this problem we can call it is to realize they are who they are judgement by others shouldn't matter to them at all and to take it easy and go one step at a time to improve themselves. any ways a mighty powerful write my sweet loving friend and I enjoyed the read. I hope I did not offend any readers likewise say anything to offend anyone at all. I mean well and merely offerin my view point as a male of what females are forced to deal with on a day tod ay basis ( also helped that I watched The Tyra Banks Talk Show & that all came up ) ( admits it he watche dit cuz he wa sbored & well nuffin else got my attention ) anyways so yea anyone offende dby this feel free to drop a line or correct me if you wish. any ways have a great one & take care sarah.
