Our Generation
Happy and beautiful she was so young,
Mind filled with their versions of perfection,
It’s a shame society had her strung,
Sadly not knowing its misconception.
Outside a smile that brightens up the room,
Each day that she lived the pain she consumed,
Yet inside a girl is hiding with doom,
What little sanity she had has bloomed.
She turned to the razors that helped her heal,
The numbers on the scale defining she,
Depending on the drugs that made her feel,
Nobody hearing her internal plea.
Destroyed and torn full of anxiety,
You messed her up, well done society.
