Fat
Yes, this word is worse than
*****,
Stupid,
Vapid.

Fat means
Unacceptable.
Outcast.
Ugly.

And I might have
‘Great legs’
And I might be
‘Thin’

But that doesn’t mean
The fear is not there.
It is forced upon us
By everyone

Until we are called
Insecure
And the cuts on my arms
Only make that worse

But we are also called
Vain
For only trying to love
What we are.
