but i don't want to

Contributed by ml03 on Wednesday, 10th March 2004 @ 04:30:20 AM in AEST
Topic: Lifepoems



don't want to get out of bed
don't want to see the new day
don't want to see my face
in the mirror
don't want to eat one crumb
don't want to feel anything
don't want to be here
don't want to be who i am

cause
everyday is a new day
that i fall
fall
far from
anything
everything
i wish
i could
i want to be

every crumb
makes me think
am i goin'
to get fat
will i become ugly
will anyone love me
if i do

every reflection
stares
the invisible
insecurites
of the quoted
beautiful
sometimes almost perfect body
i don't see anything perfect
about it
so
how can you

don't want to hear i'm cute
i'm gorgeous
i'm perfect
and on and on
don't want the words
in my head
they just push me
farther and farther
down a dark
windin' path
of depression
pukin' and starvation
makes the appearence
only that much more important

i think
i know
i do this all for you
for everyone
for every man
and the world

i want to be beautiful
i want you to love me
i want you to want me
so
i'll starve myself
binge and purge
paint my face up
anything to be what
you want
but i don't want to - ...........................

can't love myself
anymore

YOU SURE KNOW HOW TO WRITE,SO THAT'S ONE LESS INSECURITY! YOUR BODY ISN'T WHAT SHOULD BE BEAUTIFUL,
IT'S YOUR HEART THAT SHOULD BE!! NICE

Very nice. A sad and succinct statement about today's society and standards. I liked this very much. You have a real talent for expressing yourself in verse. You have a beautiful mind and to anyone that would care,that should be enough. : 0 )
