Contradictions

by Rootje

You tell me I’m not that skinny My BMI tells me I’m way too skinny You tell me My waist isn’t that small The internet tells me My waist is small enough for modeling You tell me Everyone has size 2 Research tells me The average size is size 12 You tell me I’m not enough Yet too much I tell myself I’m not enough Yet too much.
