Perfect or Not

April 23, 2013

Why does every body look so damn perfect
I’m 15 and I feel pretty worthless
I want to look like Katy Perry
Maybe Rihanna or Halle Berry
Beyoncé never had problems like me
Bet she never felt so fat and ugly
I want to be skinny but I get so hungry
Getting bad pains inside my tummy
My legs are a mess
My arms look even sore
I never wear dresses or short skirts
I have had a hard time the past few years lost some friends and shed a few tears
I just can’t cope when things get messed up
Trying to move on but I always get stuck
Yet I fall into the same old mistake
But it feels so safe
It helps me escape
I need to find a release
I guess you would never understand
The felling that comes with a knife in your hands
Free…. Now I’m free
