Eat your shame It doesn’t go away Regurgitate like you’re overweight You need more meat on your body to hate She promised to **** him off in the parking lot for her drink of choice She was far too young for either one but had nothing left to lose Swallow your pride It doesn’t go down easy Don’t let him see you cringe in disgust You need more secrets to hate yourself for Cut your skin wide open Underneath even you know you’re worth more It can only get better and I don’t take it for granted Uncomfortable in her skin unless it was naked No confidence in a word she said unless they were slurred So she ate her shame every ******* day She swallowed her pride and kept her promises It all cut her skin wide open

“wide open”
Eat your shame It doesn’t go away Regurgitate like you’re overweight You need more meat on your body to hate She promised to **** him off in the parking lot for her drink of choice She was far too young for either one but had nothing left to lose Swallow your pride It doesn’t go down easy Don’t let him see you cringe in disgust You need more secrets to hate yourself for Cut your skin wide open Underneath even you know you’re worth more It can only get better and I don’t take it for granted Uncomfortable in her skin unless it was naked No confidence in a word she said unless they were slurred So she ate her shame every ******* day She swallowed her pride and kept her promises It all cut her skin wide open
Reinvented this poem a bit so thought I’d repost
