Mirror on the wall

by Sorefromreality   Aug 15, 2006


Mirror mirror on the wall
cut off this fat and watch it fall

take a razor sharp knife and slice theses thighs
those horrid, giant, thighs of mine
eat away the result of my neglected body
stop this growing and shrink this never ending tummy

i swear I'm trying to get pretty
I'm trying to get thinner, to get fit
but i hear all this criticism
and all this "fat" shit

cut off my sides and throw them away
they're getting more and more disgusting each day

please saw off my stomach and make it smaller
I'm sick of putting more notches in my belts
and feeling like a huge whale deserving all these welts

work my body to the bone
till all this hard work shows

this girl screams to me
"your legs are so big, one is bigger than both of mine!"
as the tears start rolling
and i begin to cry

"shut up!" i scream in hysterical tears
"leave me alone, stop bringing up my fears!"

now i stare at myself
at my unstable reflection
i just HAD to be influenced
by this worlds obsession with perfection

i slit my wrists and cut off my fat
watch my weight fall off from my body
now I'm just
another sad story

mirror, mirror on the wall
i hope Ur happy, now I've frickin lost it all

    That's how I feel. I'm sitting here, listening to my stomach rumbling, feeling the pain..and crying because I want to get a knife and do everything in this poem.

    Well that was an interesting poem... You can always grow really long claws like I have and when ever they pick on you just cut the beep out of them. ^_^ That's always fun to do! :D Good luck with your weight but I bet you're still pretty. Everyone looks at theirself and says that they're ugly. They always pick out the bad. And then the people that are actually ok with how they look feel strange if they say they're pretty because they just sound conceded. But yes ppl that pick on others about how they look are just mean. Good luck with what you're looking for but try to pick out some things you don't have issues with. Maybe you have nice hair or nice skin. Curly long eye lashes or something. As long as you don't turn out like all the other girly girls that follow trends you're ok with me. C ya sore.
