Your Not So Wise Words

by Tammie   Nov 15, 2006


You always call me fat
And think I don't care
Laugh and joke about it
I don't think it's fair

The joke's always on me
I laugh and put on a smile
Shrug it off just one more time
But it gets old after a while

As I look in the mirror
The words come back to haunt me
The image I see now is
Something I don't want to be

I have to watch what I eat
Or the words all come back
Your voice inside my head
Telling me all the things I lack

I look at myself now
And all I see is fat
I hate all that I am
I'm going to change that

Eat less I must
Exercise I will
That is my goal
This fat I will kill

So look at me now
Before I demise
You'll see what you've caused
With you words so 'wise'.
