What if I don't want to get better? This hunger is the only thing I feel anymore. You abandoned me, so I sit on the bathroom floor. I drown out my tears with lyrics to songs we used to scream out the car window. While others congratulate the damage this hunger has caused, I obsess over the numbers that light up whenever I step on the scale. This is the only thing I can control anymore. Since you left.
