She free falls,
Tumbling,
Searching,
Waiting,
Wishing some good fortune would catch her.
Their biting words,
Forever echoing in her ears.
Ugly,
Fat,
Alone.
She spins violently,
Her heart breaking more and more,
With every word.
As she gets older,
And she begins to accept herself,
To love herself.
But their words come back,
And they hit her like a brick wall.
Eliminating that sliver of confidence she had,
Which took years to find,
And seconds to break.
She returns to the all-to-familiar process,
Hiding the hurt behind fake smiles,
And more made up happiness,
The happiness everyone thinks is real.
But in reality she’s lost,
Hurting,
And breaking.
But they are to blind to see it,
They are afraid to see it
