She Just Wanted to Be Perfect

She purged after every meal

She wrapped her waist till she couldn't breathe just for that hourglass figure

She wouldn't eat for days to be thin

She put makeup on for herself every morning

She'd tell everyone shes fine just to get them off her back

She cut her thighs to remind herself how fat they were

She cut her wrists to please the voices in her voices

She cut her waist to remind herself of the figure she wanted

She just wanted to be perfect

And if she couldn't have that she didn't want to be anything at all
