Life is the present given by a friend
The present you didn’t like
The one you couldn’t return
Because it was given to you with thought

She Was Dead
When she was 6
She used to eat everything
She could never get enough
And she would cry and beg for more
Even if she wasn’t even hungry anymore
Just the smell of food made her flip
Cause it smelled so good
And she wanted it all
When she turned 10
She still ate everything
All the other kids teased her
They said she was fat
And she would come home crying
Begging for them to stop
But the smell of the food
Her mother had cooked was so good
She forgot about the bullies for a second
And she ate it all
But then she turned 12
And all the girls in her class had boyfriends
But all the guys thought she was disgusting
They thought she was fat
And she knew they were right
When she came home
The food was on the table
And for the first time in her life
She decided not to eat
And she didn’t
When she was 15
People gave her compliments on her body
She even had her first boyfriend
Her mother was getting concerned
Cause she never touched the food she cooked
But she still thought about the little girl she used to be
That ate everything
And she figured she still was that girl
But what she and all the others didn’t know
She wasn’t that girl anymore
When she was 16
She rarely ate anything
She kept losing weight
And all the people started teasing her again
They thought she was too thin
And her mother cried all of the time
Cause she didn’t recognize her little girl anymore
Everybody told her to eat
But she couldn’t
She never wanted to be that little girl again
When she was 17
All the power was drained from her
Everybody thought she was a freak
They said she was a freak for never eating
And she knew they were right
But she couldn’t stop
And one day
She just fell
She fell and never stood up
She was dead.
