Beauty? What does that even mean
We portray beauty in many different ways some say the color of our eyes some say the gap between our thighs some say it's the way we never lie. Her beauty lies within where only her and her lover can see, there's a flower blooming that helps her breathe
The toxic air of society
"Beauty means skinny" they preach
And this message is etched in her rib cage she skips a couple of meals so that she can be beautiful
She sweeps her dyed blond hair to show her bones that stick out
Like they're ready to pop out
" you look so thin" her mother exclaims
But she does not question it. Because her mother thinks it's okay to be so skinny you look so fragile like a walking skeleton
The second she started skipping those meals she was a dead man walking
