You have to eat to lose weight you know It all seems so illogical, feels so illogical I just want to go to my stomach and pull Away every morsel until there’s nothing left Until my body is forced to feed on itself Gnawing at the fat reserves I know are there The ones I see staring back at me in the mirror The ones I know are lurking in between Hidden crevices I can feel with each fiber Of muscles intent on movement And that is where the problem lies, the muscles My body will be unsatisfied with just the taste of fat Whatever it can get its grimy taste buds on Is what it wants– is what it shall have Until the mirror says I am satisfying enough Until I open it back up for one more measly molecule That's when it tricks you and plasters you with fat A shiny new coat to thicken you back up Just in case I might starve again Just in case it needs to lick its insides again
