My Reflection

by cassie   Mar 10, 2006


Bloated, full
I feel so fat,
I look in the mirror,
Shudder and turn back

Tears stream down my face,
Sadness fills within,
Why cant I be pretty,
Why cant I be thin?

Ever since I was little,
I wanted to be known for me,
Not for my appearance,
Can you set me free?

Free from the insults,
The teases and taunts,
Free from the tears,
Of which they haunt

I look at my fat,
As it rolls beneath my chin,
Think of the food I just ate,
Consumed like a sin

Always feeling guilty,
After eating any food,
I just wish I could change,
This dreaded mood

Wish I could be confident,
No more crying in the night,
No more of this self pity,
I wont give up this fight.

    You know. true people will accept your for who you are. but people who have never felt sad dont understand until something bad happens to them. know that your so much better b.c you dont bother to hurt them. love the poem too!
