i didn't mind you at first

you started small

and so did my physique

and we were okay with that

but a snack or two turned into a full on meal

and you started devouring me

i didn't know how to deal with it

so i let your perfume stain my body

and i let myself become aware of every curve on my body

small

sharp

and beautiful

then it all went wrong

and nothing was working

so i treated myself to junk food

once 

twice

almost every time

for putting up with this

and then i got a bit bigger

and they came along

violent, dark reminders of what i became

and i couldn't tell 

at which point i hated myself more
