I am riding off the wall
making circles
scratching with discolored patterns
~gruesome~
like an unsettled feeling...
..carrying sponges to clean
the mirror again and again
for more glances
of my beauty.
My body's curvature
fits perfectly with my conscience
probably better than my compatibility
with life.
~my boyfriend says
take these fries..
I smile. He frowns.
Just another day
of justifying my attitude...
My ego is blemished
maybe that's why
'attractiveness'
has multiple meanings for me.

♥ Maria ♥ -
Very wonderful take on the prompt.
You delved into the reality of
this disorder, and have done so,
with much sentiment and what
aches from within-- a blemished ego.
Greatly conveyed..
Best of luck & thanks for entering
