Control - solitude

I only wanted to be left alone

Solitude gives some control

Some respite from reproachful eyes

Too quick to damn the soul

Just wanted to be left alone

You had to taunt and tease

Profoundly anorexic

Yet none of you could see

Just wanted to be left alone

Stay hidden from attention

Fat thighs I had, was frigid as

No end to your tormenting...

...just wanted to be left alone

I was too blind to see

Your insults and your put-me-downs

They were just jealousy.
