Unseen

A distorted view that is not true

damages the youth of the generations that pass through

Beneath the filters, the flawless scene

leaves children ill at ease concerning their seams 

Anxiety brews, when restraining to chew 

In pursuit of perfection, she displays an uncanny obsession 

a quest for validation, hard to hide

the meal she eats, unseen by the human eye

echoes of hunger, a quiet command

is too many numbers to withstand  

irregular heartbeats, cold hands and feet

her body: all bones and no meat
