No, my breasts don’t swell so much that my back breaks everyday anymore. And my stomach doesn’t have many rolls. My arms are firm and my muscles are visible. My high cheek bones are prominent. 


I look like women my age want to, fit. Young. 


But what about that fake smile? Can you see the sadness in my eyes. Know how many times I’ve held back tears today? How many times I wished I’d died? 


No because you only see what I can do for you, what you want me to be. & sweetheart I’ve never been anything anyone asked of me, only ever what I chose- I live free. 


I won’t conform to what you believe I should be, and no I won’t be at peace with that. My inner turmoil threatens to boil over with each minor inconvenience as if I’m a walking china doll. Ready to crack at any moment, with the slightest pressure applied.
