The Curtain of Thin

I would love to show the real me

But she is hidden behind a curtain

I must not show her until she is deemed acceptable

Unfortunately when she is acceptable she may be dead

You see, the true me is hidden by an eating disorder

A curtain of thin

So my weight must be low and perfect before the curtain can be pulled

I would love to show the real me

So I fight the curtain of thin to show her
