My Obssession
An apple a day
So they say
Would keep me in good figure
Dresses would fit
And so would tight jeans
As well as sexy jumpsuits
Pray,
An apple a day
Would keep me looking
Like I am eighteen forever!
Such did I make of my daily mantra
My motto
My life's motivation
Realizing not
The health hazards such would bring to me!
Yes, the massive hair loss started
And caused me to resort to doctors
Every single week
More, the weakness banged on me
And even caused me to fall into the nether
At my place of work in front of everyone
And yet again
I lost all energy
And instead of feeling like eighteen
I felt like I carried a body aged eighty!
Pray, with my image I am obsessed
With looking fit and slim
As does require the posh side of society
Yes, with such I want to blend in
And be accepted
For even if I am aware of the health hazards
Of eating only an apple a day
Pray
I do still make of it
My motto, my daily mantra!
