Still Not Pretty
The numbers never change
I take a deep breath
as I step onto what ruins every day of my life
I stare down at the red three digit number that glares back at me in disappointment
Still not pretty
The size of my thighs disgust me
I wish you could just cut the fat off
Like a pig
I am a pig
I hate myself
You have ten fingers
Stick one down your throat
Just far enough for you to throw up the ugly
You’re too much of a coward to do it
You could never accomplish anything
You’re going to be fat all your life
No one will love you
Why do you even try?
Yeah just go sit in your room with all your friends
you’re just lucky your cats love you
Wait, no they don’t
Guess you’re fucked
Look, there’s a perfectly sharp
pointy
taunting
pair of scissors right there
Pick them up I dare you
Flip them open
Grip the end and just cut
Slice
Slit
Sever
anything
Anything to numb the pain
Watch as your pathetic blood runs across the blade
Oh it hurts too much
What hurts is having to look at yourself everyday
You should be ashamed
Everyone else is
End it
End it now
Please.
Just end it now.
