The Beholder does not always see beauty
Sharp words cut me
By razor sharp tongues
Icy eyes watch me
Judging every little piece
Harsh brains calculate me
Watching for any imperfections
And they always ask
Skinny or Fat Girl ?
Curvy or Flat Girl ?
Nice or Mean Girl ?
Smart or Dumb Girl?
Nerd or Popular Girl ?
1 or 10 Girl ?
So worrying i do
Want Another piece
No im not Hungry
Hey does this shirt
Make me look flat?
Step on the scale
There goes another meal
Im not Good Enough
Is what i think .
Big bloated belly is
All i ever see
How many calories ?
I ask constantly
Your fat your ugly
Is all i think
I try and fake
A smile
But the scale determines my mood…
I wish i was skinny
Well
To bad all
You have is fat and not
Bone is what i want
I always envy
The people that talk
About food like it is
A treasure more like a knife
It recks you inside and out and
So a endless of negative thoughts
Cloud me and i forget
I AM A HUMAN
And perfection is an illusion
And that tearing myself apart
IS NOT OKAY
But still i continue
This gut wrenching cycle
And this happens
Just another hour
I say as i run till i collapse
Just another hour i say as
My stomach is growling
Like an angry dog
Its tearing me apart
And people say pretty`s on the inside
Well for me it is on the outside
And a mirror full of lies
Taints my perspective
Feelings bubble up inside
Never unwind they are trapped
In there forever
So im drowning in a river of self doubt
Whenever someone says your not fat .
And they say beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder
But what happens when the beholder is yourself ….?
