Forbidden Words
Once again
I find myself
Staring at a
Body that I
Don't know.
What happened to
The dreams of
looking like your thinspo?
Or being someone else's?
Everyone tells me the opposite of
What I tell myself
And I tell myself that
I am fat
And revolting.
Simple.
Understandable.
The truth, obviously.
But
For just a
Spilt second as
I stare at this
Body that I have
Been taught to despise
I see and think of something
Unimaginable
Forbidden.
That the reflection
I see in my mirror
Is bearable.
And my mind is at war
Over whether I am fine
The way I am or
If I am an
Ugly,
Obese whale.
For just a second
Barely a millisecond
Forbidden words flood my mind
Trying to take over
My poisoned mind
and say i am beauitful.
