please
what am I to do when I
*
want

a salad
but so many
friends and family

want
me to eat a pepperoni roll
and while it's not the healthiest decision for me,
I feel as if the people around me,
won't love me if I don't eat the pepperoni roll
then of course, what is best for me doesn't matter anymore
because even though the salad and its family of veggies
loves me, I

need to feel loved
*even if it is fake by everyone
and by choosing salad I feel guilty
and worst of all unloved..
Yeah this is a true story but using food to represent some things in my life to avoid any conflict. No names have been mentioned, I just had to vent through my writing
