Skinny (I Watched) Poem by Jess Terry

Anorexia for what?
Skinny for him you say,
They all think i'm too big,
I watched as you shriveled up,
dying like a flower,
without any water,
I watched as your eyes grew dull,
your cheeks grew sallow,
I watched as the weeks fled by,
I watched you die,
I looked on at you,
When you searched deep into my eyes,
You should know by now,
pains not that easy to disguise,
I watched you,
in the mirror
