Standing on the stage
Walking down the runway now
Here comes our young queen
Standing tall and proud
Knowing deep inside of her
That something was wrong
No one watching saw
No one suspected a thing
'Till she fell off stage
Now everyone sees
This newly broken down girl
Is in much trouble
This girl had become
A bulimic beauty queen
To be called pretty
She found it worth it
Just until that moment when
She fell to the ground
The beauty queen knew
She was having dizzy spells...
She was so hungry!
She had not eaten
She had wanted to win this!
So she starved herself
She couldn't see it
She was beautiful without
Her starving herself

-
-
Thank you! no, nothing like that is ever worth it
-
-
and its very scary but if you ever have a friend who is struggling with it im probably the perfect person for that kind of advice...unfortuantly i can say i know how to get yourself out of it!
-
-
no, i dont know anyone struggling ith it... either way, though, it is a terrible thing that people think that they have to be tiny to be pretty!
-

one of my exs told me that and for some reason i beleived him (at the time we were together) then one day i just passed out! i was starved and it was scary!not a good thing...i guess being the new girl in my situation had a lot to do with it...but now im happy with my life..and succesful with soccer, so i dont have to worry about a guy telling me how horrible i look...cuz now im not fat! lol its a good feeling and it does suck but its easy to have someon put that in your head it really is!
-
-
Oh my God!!! that would be scary! I've been told that, but I just turned around and said a few things that Im not gonna rite on here
but he never messed with me after that...
-
-
haha nice! ya the guy that told me that is a man whore! sorry but he is! and now he is just...ugh im glad we arnt together now! lol but im glad im better cuz its just its horrible! and he actually had the guts to come up and ask me to hang out wit him later like three days ago! (this happened about a year ago...and he had seen me pass out) i was like your kidding rite!?
-
-
talk about crazy!!! all of that and then asking to hang out!? WTF! sry, but thats the only way to say it... lemme at him!!!seriously though, talk about sick!
-
-
i know its so annoying and he will see me in the hallway and would be like a sexy, and all that i just wanted to slap him so hard across the face i just ugh! it makes me so mad that he would have the guts to say and look at me that way after what he did! ya know he should just not talk cuz what comes out of his mouth is always stupid! he should just stand there and look pretty! cuz its all he is good for! lol
-
-
ya, after all that, he has no rite to even speak to you, yet alone expect you to be friends with him! hes out of his mind!!!
-
-
