Perfection


Measuring, weighing, counting, craving Ignoring the fact that you are dying Why is there a need for trying Behind the smile one is crying Comparing to others ho are not real Denying each day for a meal Obssessive workouts Unhealthy diets Thinking over and over that they are a mess Wishing there was someone to confess Despising the image in the mirror Wishing each day they were thinner Avoiding the begs and cries fro their family Wanting to end their life shortly Reminding to stay in control An unknown condition which is mental Adisease-an obssession If only one knew of its infection Realize that there is no such thing as "perfection" Beauty is accepted through one's perception Open your eyes and see the light Things need to become right Beauty comes in different shapes aand sizes A fact that everyone needs to realize
