Squeezing into jeans that are too tight,
Asking why? Why can’t I look like her?
Like her and the other half of the population
(because you think every other woman you see is
prettier than you,
better,
skinnier.
You’re not happy.
You just want to look normal.
What the hell is normal?
Someone please tell me!
Because I’m tired of constantly wanting to be more…
Skinny
Flawless like in the magazines (even though deep down I know its airbrush)
I’m tired of debating which diet is actually healthy
I’m tired of arguing with that little voice in my head,
“Maybe you should become anorexic”
I’m tired of thinking that the other half of the population won’t like me if I’m not these things.
Perfect (or almost there)
That maybe if I was prettier, skinnier…
Then I would be loved. Then I wouldn’t care.
