Fatty Me Poem by Jordan Hanley

Looking in the mirror, what do I see?
All I see, is that fatty me

Living in darkness, hiding from the light
The fear of their glances gives me a fright
I want to be alone
In the darkness, of my own home
Eating my pain away
Bite by bite, hoping for this to be the last day

Please make this pain end
I can't live life in this body that will not mend
My hope has become weary, As my eyes become teary

Fat, fat, fat, they scream at me
I don't know where to go, they're all around, staring at me
They hate me, for what I am
I hate me, for what I am
I want it to be done
This existence, is anything but fun

Darkness...
Looking in the mirror, what do I see?
All I see, is that fatty me

Each day I grow strong
My legs, my arms, my muscles have come along
Fat, fat, fat, fading away
My body is now mine, and will always be this way

Blood, sweat, and tears, through all these years
My life I now live free
This will bring me, to my destiny
The days become long
But each one... I grow strong

Light...
Looking in the mirror, what do I see?
I see me, for me, and not what I used to be.
