The lying truth (about bulimia)

by holly   Jul 29, 2005


Please rate and comment thanks!!

Once upon a time,
there was a little girl
she was said to be so beautiful
but to her this wasn't real

She thought that she were ugly,
she thought that she were fat,
she wished to be the girls
in the magazines she had

Her friends said she was silly
she were beautiful inside and out
but to her it was a fantasy
in her heart she knew only dealt

But hard it was to stop eating
so an idea she got one day
she'd go into the bathroom
and give it all away

Kneeling by the toilet
fingers down her throat
up came what went down
this was the life she chose

Day by day she'd do this
without a single regret
never would she worry
never would she fret

This simply was a way for her-
to satisfy her needs
to keep a pretty smile,
to broaden up her dreams

But never was she happy
knowing perfect she was not
She'd always hate deep down inside
the truth is what she fought.
