Hues of distaste riddle my throat;
Overflowing, bursting, burning;
When will this cease?
It is endless;
I am imprisoned in this cycle;
Never valued;
Always flawed;
Rippling with excessive flesh;
Consume, retch, empty;
Puddles swirl around me, gruesome reminders;
Tears of self-loathing stain more than cheeks;
Corrupted and scarred;
Will I find peace?
My dreams haunt me with this eternity.

People who tease fat people disgust me. They are beautiful, inside and out, and they don't need to be burdened with other people's insecurities, and what society decides is "beauty". Everyone is beautiful in their own way.
