Healthy Weight Fears
August 1, 2017
Of what do I fear
Will happen if i gain weight?
I feel such terror
What is the worst that
Might occur if my body
Starts to look normal
Answer is simple
I'd become vulnerable
Potential victim
Lure for predators
Being healthy means I'm prey
Victimization
If I'm skeletal
Who wants to touch me, harm me
It is protection
Maybe not foolproof
There are sick bastards out there
Creepier than most
It has worked so far
This defense mechanism
Has helped me stay safe
In a sense, that is
Looking weak and delicate
Is not without pain
Prevents happiness
Ability to live life
Completely, fully
