I didn’t eat today I ate in the morning But just a few bites So I would survive the day Without fainting Because I had to work I ate just now Because my friend was skeptical And I just wanted her To think That I was okay So she wouldn’t worry I told the only one that knows I told him that my Head felt dizzy Eyes saw black spots when I stood up Fingers and face and ankles felt numb He told me to eat I said I don’t want to Then he asked me if I wanted to live And said to eat But I couldn’t answer Because I’m not sure if I know My body feels weak But my head feels strong Because I’m not giving in I have control

Dehydration and Starvation
I didn’t eat today I ate in the morning But just a few bites So I would survive the day Without fainting Because I had to work I ate just now Because my friend was skeptical And I just wanted her To think That I was okay So she wouldn’t worry I told the only one that knows I told him that my Head felt dizzy Eyes saw black spots when I stood up Fingers and face and ankles felt numb He told me to eat I said I don’t want to Then he asked me if I wanted to live And said to eat But I couldn’t answer Because I’m not sure if I know My body feels weak But my head feels strong Because I’m not giving in I have control
