How much longer can I bear
Of looking in the mirror
The full-length one that
Reveals all my deepest secrets
How much longer can I bear
The weight of imperfection
The punishment of seeing
My own reflection
How much longer can I bear
To see my thigh gap barely there
And huge lumps of fat
Stuck to me like super-glue
How much longer can I wait
To hear all the compliments and gossip
To be part of the group
To be popular and thin
How much longer can I stand
To count the calories
And weigh myself
Knowing that my goal
Is so far away
