Looks can be deceptive protective
Looks can be both friend and foe
Make up the mask of protection
Laughter the sound of a lie
Perfect nails and hair get glances not stares
Slim trim hides the starving & straining
Too fat too ugly too real too raw
Hide it conceal it smile ignore
Looking good is the lie
It cons & confuses
It deceives & defuses
It comes at a price
I plan for you never to know what it costs me
I plan to keep you arm’s length from the truth
I plan to present as personable perfect
I plan to survive because of my lie
For all who struggle on a daily basis with eating disorders, anxiety, depression and fear that the real them will not be good enough. Keep on going and make peace with yourself, find your passion and follow it the rest will fall into place because that is what you deserve.
