Fat

Do you ever feel so ugly in your own skin?

Where you pinch and grab at your physical reasons to hate yourself

All the taunts and cruel phrases relive in your jiggles

You fad diet yourself into comfort,

Only to be reminded of your deep scars as you catch a glimpse in the reflection

You strive for societal perfection as you let yourself slip into a cracked version of someone you were

The fear that happiness is gone for good

And this is all that's left
