Perfectly Perfect
Nothing.
Till I woke up
then you spoke up
screamingng in my head.
Losing that weight again
with words of encouragement
ignoring the ills of my mind
pushing me back to when "You looked so much better".

Whiplash.
Punches.
Ugly words.
Oh no sorry.
You don't want to know
you just want to see
Perfection.
Smile.
Laugh.

Have you noticed how I’m chewing gum again?
How apples have become my favourite food again?
That I can’t sit down because of the bruises again?

BAGGY SHIRTS AND NERDY GLASSES
Hiding behind these thick frames
Shying away from these constant insults
Look down at the floor hoping it would swallow me whole

Nobody to talk to except your book
Every glare, every snide comment
I brush it off like an insect on my shoulder
Cowards check for cuts on my arm
