fat
annoying
ugly
A seed planted at a young age
Growing deep In my subconscious mind

Comments are made
Tears are shed
The critic is brought closer to the surface of consciousness
The seed planted oh so long ago sprouts and begins to blossom

Fat
Annoying
Ugly
I watch my plant grow
Helpless and full of desperation

What started as a question
Has now become a reality filled with judgements and critics
Presumptions feed on my thoughts like wildfire
Now an all consuming conflagration
Leaving me
Obsessed
Empty
Starving

FAT
ANNOYING
UGLY

My plant is now a dense forest
My fire burns brighter than ever before
FAT
ANNOYING
UGLY
WORTHLESS
HOPELESS

­lost.

I am trapped
Lost in a forest fire
Created by my worst critic
**ME.
