Prisoner

My dark locks are finally blonde.

My pale skin is clear, but only with foundation on.

My body is finally thin and frail.

Only after a few skipped meals…

Drawn on eyebrows, and overdrawn red lips.

I honestly hate this shade of lipstick.

My once beautiful brown eyes are dull and dead.

All thanks to bitter words inside my head.

Who cares if I am sad?

I am beautiful!

I am finally perfect in this broken society.

Finally accepted; one of the pretty girls.

I am fake, a prisoner…

I am you.
