She takes one look
At the food
On her plate
Takes a small
Bite and another
Finally She sets
It down thinking
"Im too fat i've
Got to get it out"
She rushes to
The bathroom
Leaving her friends
Worried and confused
Once in the room
She looks for
The nearest stall
This is usually
The one near the dorr
So she can dash out
When one of her worried friends
Comes in pounding her
With questions About
Why she ate
Then ran to the bathroom
She didn't used to
Be like This
You Know
She wasn't always worried
About her weight
Never saying that
She was too fat
She used to be
A wonderful
Imagitive girl
Living life
What ever happend to her?
