We are all a little weird and life's a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love.

Ana calls your name
You're ugly
Fat
She says
Put down the food
Do not be weak
Work a little harder
You can be pretty if you try
Skinny
Pretty
Ana will help you
The mirror doesn't lie
You are worthless
You know it
You might as well die
Starve yourself, my pretty
You can do this if you try
Push until it hurts
Until you want to cry
The scale shows the numbers
You scream
Why
Why
Why
You try a little harder
Starve a little longer
It's a vicious cycle
Tearing apart your life
The numbers drop lower
98
89
But you still aren't satisfied
You're still that caterpillar
Not yet a butterfly
Ana calls your name
And you begin to cry
