She is beautiful.

The society whispers.
Look at how skinny she is.

Replies the children.
See how much she is liked.

Shouts the population.
Why are you not like her?


Magazine screams.

Change your diet.

Says the fridge.
Get better clothes.

Sing the closet.
Become skinny.

The mirror answers.

Look at her.

The hallways creaks.
She's so pretty.

A fat girl stares.
What's your number?

Boys asks in class.

Why are you in here?

Puzzles the toilet.
Never see you anymore.

Wonders the camera.
Where are you?


asked the scale.
Are you seeing your goal?


Riddles the mirror.

You need Help.

Family members whispers.
You're in so much pain.

The journal confesses.
You know you want it.

Teases the cake.
You're already not here.

Haunts the noose


The author's comments:
Our world is messed up. WE think that people in magazine are beautiful and little girls crave to be told their beautiful. Yet they only see one thing different in them and that is size. Which leads down to a very negative tunnel. People need to be aware.

They say it&#039;s what you make<br /> I say it&#039;s up to fate<br /> It&#039;s woven in my soul<br /> I need to let you go<br /> Your eyes, they shine so bright<br /> I want to save their light<br /> I can&#039;t escape this now<br /> Unless you show me how<br /> When you feel my heat<br /> Look into my eyes<br /> It&rsquo;s where my demons hide

This is amazing.
