Perfection

Perfection was all she wanted...
She would stare into the bathroom mirror with tears in her eyes, and her hands on her waist.
"Perfection" Ana would whisper. "Don't you want perfection?"
The girl closed her eyes... Tear drops rushing down her face, mascara smudging, and her hands tighten.
"I will be perfect" The girl mumbled.
She collapsed to the floor creating a gentle thump...
But was perfection what she wanted, or what Ana wanted.
The girl grasped her stomach and saw the linings of her bones.
Perfection was ugly.
