model in a magazine

by sasha - Aries

She looks at herself in the mirror
the flab that hangs on her cheeks makes her cry
She wipes her face and asks herself why
everyone says shes so thin
but she doesnt seem to think so
a fat cow is what she see
no one understands her pain how would they know
she often starves herself
her mother begs her to eat
so she does goes up to her room
and in a plastic garbage bag she throws up
goes to the bathroom and washes her face
she tries on her jeans and they are way too tight
she looks at the models in the magazine
they have the perfect bodies they are not fat like her
she stands 5’7 and 110 pounds
too much she scarfs down donuts and junk food
goes to the restroom and barfs it up
she begans to feel beautiful the weight is going away
she doesnt see the thiness in her face
the dark circles under her eyes
or the bruises on her body
she doesnt see that her hair is falling out 
and her teeth are rottening
she just sees that the fat is going
I have to ask myself why
doesnt she feel good about herself
the tv makes thin look glamorous
only the beautiful people look great
when she looks at the girls in the magazines
she crys because according to them she is to fat
so she goes on an eating binge 
looks at herself in the mirror, sticks her finger down her throat and throws up her dinner and whats left of her life

Reason for writing:

    my best friend inspired me to write this...she was the skinniest person i ever met and she always thought she was fat..she always wanted to look like a model
