i knew this girl

i knew this girl everyone was happy when she was born. she had the most beautiful face i knew this girl she was three years old no care in the world scarlet lips, and deep brown eyes she had just gotten her glasses she was so proud i knew this girl she was six years old excited to grow up pigtails, smarter than the other kids i knew this girl 9 years old oldest in her grade she already has acne the other kids pick on her but she could stand it i knew this girl   12 years old she thought she was fat her acne was worse, she was coovered in blemishes. she didn't want her glasses anymore. she was an outcast, all the other kids just ignored her i knew this girl 13 years old wounds all up her arms and legs she has stopped eating her weight dropping to 100lbs i knew this girl 14 years old she took off her glasses and put on darker clothes she blends into the crowd her arms and legs are covered with scars. her weight is down to 75 lbs i know this girl 15 years old. fighting to recover, having relapses all the time drinking, whoring around, fasting, then overeating. her weight is back up to 94 but why should she keep it there? i might get to know this girl 20 years old living a happy life scars on her arms, but they're all faded by now. her hands shake when she eats. But this is only if she fights to get better. if not she will never live to see this age.
