Seeing through skinny girls with a deadly obsession
Pain pierces the tears pouring from my heart
Starving themselves in a search for perfection.
Alone but I don’t envy them, I chose to be apart.

I see them everyday sitting at the lunch table pretending to eat
Anchored in a chasm of oblivion- deaf to their bodies cries
Denying their sickness-blinded by a desire to compete
Their lies are frozen thorns that hold them entwined

Breaking down teens nationwide-one thought
A image that cages  heart and soul-beautiful=thin
This game they play is dangerous-I’ve already lost
Brittle they look possessed - they can’t win

very true I dont know why people would do that to themselves. and I know its hard how everyone tries to be like them. Im proud of you for being different! and seeing the harm in what they do.

You kidding me? Its not hard to not do it. I love food and eating.. yummy food.. lol. I coudn't do that to myself - I don't have that need to be perfect cuz im ok knowing im not. I've had friends who have done it to themselves though its scary.
