Strive for Perfection


 

Skinny

Think

Small

Petite

Words that mean nothing to you

But everything to

Me

A reflection

A struggle

A war

Raging on

One missed snack

Then a meal

Hunger does not faze me

It’s comforting

One day

Check

Two days

Check

Control

Battles that I fight won

Wars, not so much

Always trying

Working towards

-Reality-

fantasy getting in the way

skinny

thin

small

petite

words that mean nothing to you

but everything to

me
