Return To Slender
A girl of just fourteen
Decides to go lean
Little by little stop the meals
Skip the breakfast
Take the heel
A moment on the lips
A lifetime on the hips
A year passes
She's underweight
She skips all her meals
Thinking she's still fat
Another year passes
She looks like stick
And is just as thin
Looks in the mirror and thinks she's fat
When she's anything but that
Keep the diet going
Because after all, no one like a chubby girl

I personally have suffered from depression, and I love to write poetry, and am inspired in many ways. I write a lot, and my goal is to inspire people to have to will to live, and bring awareness to things.
