Yes, it's what she had planned.. That reaching out attempts were smothered... So she could not make a stand.. She will make her perfect Or so she taught her to believe That calories and a flat stomach Would make her worth something Diet pills here... laxatives taken there.... And soon a stomach grumbling meant cheering..

To be accepts..not care if she died For no one could ever understand how she could be helped It wasn't until a long time after When she realized who the enemy truly was And fought for her happiness and laughter The girl who was thought to be lost.. In the end, she made it and stopped listening To the negative, evil side And finally started living No longer afraid and no longer cried And finally became free ..happy and never terrified From the ones who thought won
