Feels Okay

Head aches

Body breaks

Heavy eyes

Full of lies

Wincing from the stomach pain

Afraid of the weight she may gain

She doesn’t believe a word they say

But smiles and says that she’s okay

Lying through a perfect smile

She hasn’t been fine for a while

The scars on her stomach tell the truth

The pain she feels took away her youth

Holding back a piercing cry

She cuts deeper, wanting to die

Feels her life slip away

Finally everything feels okay
