Pray
By Rainbowriter
I starve myself to death Just to please you. Mom, please don't cry, I'll just skip dinner for one night. I'm feeling old by sixteen. One more crack and then I'll break. I fell the walls closing in. I never thought my day would come. I pray for my own strength. If I'm in control And you can't stop me, Then why do I feel so weak? Why do I feel so ugly? I turn myself inside out In hopes that you will notice me. Me lying helpless in your arms Praying that you will save me Must make you feel pretty. I hope you're happy. I hope you're proud. How do you think I got this way? When you push me down You best pray that I can't get up. Now that we are through, I look in the mirror and pray. Pray that I see me.
