people told me to shed pounds as i was too large for anyone's liking.

people told me to talk less as i was too loquacious for a young lady,

so i ate my words

until i couldn't eat anything else

until i couldn't say anything else

and until i couldn't eat anything anymore.


people told me to lose weight

and i did

not knowing

that i would lose myself in the end
