PrettyThin Journal Post New Entry

surely she is dead.

Posted by impulssedd on February 1, 2012 at 5:20 PM


Little hands, little feet

float along the street

skinny thighs, persistent lies

all used to disguise

her slow demise


Size double zero

becomes her hero

as her jeans fall to the floor

envious glares from the size fours


Not even the smallest hold her upright

fingers clenched so tight

bracing for the pain

it is the same day after day


It is not even about being the thinnest

only the best

the best at absolutely nothing

as nothing is all she is


Hollow to the core

her body is aching and sore

words are slurred and eyes red

surely she is dead.
