I try to have
a good body image
I'm fat and I say
that I'm proud
but when I avoid mirrors
at all costs
I close my eyes when
I walk past one
others say I'm strong
and courageous
they wish they had the confidence
that I seem to possess
but do you really want
a false sense f happiness?
do you want to
put on a front
so others think you're
strong?
do you want to skip
meals so you
feel in control?
don't ever say you wish
you were
like
me
