What's Eating Me

Foundation founded on; Superficial societal stares.. Teenagers teary truth... Of a perfect purging prayer... Supermodels and stars... On a pedastal of peers... Engorging every entree... Appauled at how they appear... Succulently still unsatisifed... Baking another bite... Indulgence is imminent... Famine is nil a fright... Nauseated near spent... Dieting with no drive... Vomiting every morsel... This is how I feel alive....

Hoping this is not you. It is an incredible write which makes me feel so sad for the pressure society puts on teenage girls, however I know adults who suffer also. An amazing poetic statement on a most disturbing subject. Excellent title. Love, Shar
