Behold

Life can be brilliant

If you want it to be.

I've realized that some problems

not everyone can see.

Some think you're just fine,

There's nothing wrong at all.

When really on the inside,

You cry, you bawl.

You claim you're okay,

But they know it's just a lie.

Keep on, go ahead,

Don't blame me if you die.

I'm in control, I have power!

Nothing brings me down.

For I will be thin

Though I am not now.

Someone tell me, show me how.

So watch me as the weight falls off

I smile in the mirror.

You roll your eyes in disgust

You say you've had enough.

But no don't leave me

Not now or ever!

I can't do this alone.

Forget unhealthy,

I will be thin.

But please just stand beside me.

I don't care if it's not right!

All I want is beauty!

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder

The beholder I am sees disgust.

She doesn't care that she might loose her hair

No she doesn't care at all.

For she will be thin

Though she is not now.

Behold as she tears herself down.

I'm beautiful the way I am.

Oh is that so true.

I don't find this beautiful

so tell me why do you?

Someone please just tell me

What the hell I'm doing wrong.

All I want it's beauty.

Nothing else, that's it, that's all.
