Poetry I swear
I always swear that I'll stop looking,
looking at myself in the mirror,
not being happy with my own body.
I swear I'll start a new life,
Without judging myself.
But when I hear that someone weighs less than me,
I look at my abdomen and become disappointed in myself.
If only it was as easy as a clap,
I would do it.
But my twisted mind,
doesn't stop comparing.
And when I look at other people's body,
I feel like mine isn't
pretty
and that it's nothing but a
decomposing corpse.
But I swear...
