Description Crumpled up on the dressing room floor, among 9's, 10's, and 12's.
One hand on the mirror, fighting back the tears, so i sit.
I will never be those sizes, so i guess it was simply denial in picking up the smaller ones.
The ones i couldn't fit into, if i tried.
I run my fingers along the sides of the material, imagining how gorgeous i would look in it.
If i wasn't fat.
If i hadn't slowly put on weight, weight that wasn't there last year.
What did i miss out on, as a young girl, to make me unprepared now.
How did i escape a high school with vain girls, and not know how to hide my flaws with precision applied makeup.
I know that you know i don't fit in.
You always stare at me, because you know Iā€™m not like you.
Iā€™m an Amazon to you.
Me, with my tall figure, and healthy body.
It makes you hungry on the inside because you know i eat.
You cry on the inside as well, but for different reasons.
You can't be fat, you just can't.
You're always hungry and you always have to be beautiful, and happy.
But you aren't, are you?
Neither am i, so I guess we aren't so different.
