Broken Heart

dreams.

she wrote.

she drew.

she read.

she was the attraction in life
as everyone thought.

she seemed like the perfect teen
under her skin is where the 'perfect' is.

under her skin
in reality
she struggled.

in her reality
she was far from perfect.

her depression
and anxiety
made its appearance.

she never told a soul
because she would affect others.

her idea of perfect
was something she knew
she could never be.

at school
everyone wondered
'how does she have a perfect body'
she didn't.

the countless eating disorders
that nobody noticed
took a toll on her.

she dreams
in her books
in her writing

even in death
she dreamt to escape reality.

dreams are the effect of reality.
