CW: Eating Disorders
By Emma Brant
I see you
calculating
restricting
controlling your body
three times a day.
I see me
crying
confused
wishing that
I was normal.
I see how you
hide
pretend
fake your wellbeing
for others.
I see how I
glorified
romanticized
embodied the disease
that devoured my body.
I see you and
hope
plead
beg for you not to be
like me.
