I used to be a ray of sunshine
I had friends, no family issues, and no insecurities
I was skinny, I was toned, my hair was long and almost blonde.
But all of that changed after 7th grade.
I no longer see myself as a beauty queen
I no longer wear tank tops
I no longer like to wear my hair up.
I wear baggy clothes so no one can see my rolls
I wear lots of makeup but I still look weird in the mirror
No matter how confident I feel. The mirror will always tell me that there's something wrong.
I used to love eating as much as I wanted
But now I can hardly eat something without feeling guilty.
People say I'm skinny, but I'm not as skinny as I used to be.
Im no longer the 120 pound 13 year old me.
People say I'm pretty but why can't I see it?
I used to be a ray of sunshine.
Now I'm nothing but the cold moon.
