Summer ***
A compliment,
Or a jab-
Slowly,
Tearing my mind.
Good thoughts,
Stripped away,
Replaced with
Horrible ideas
Of how my body should look.
The mirror becomes a threat.
Words like hourglass,
Skinny and thin-
Swirl and boil in my head.
Obsession,
How could I?
Look like them?
The rush slices me open-
Spills my guts
Working out in my room
Starving myself
For the summer ***
That never felt like mine
