Kristen Kay

You say I'm fat.
I'll go exercise.
You say I'm ugly .
I'll put on lipstick.

You say I'm fat.
I'll go on a diet.
You say I'm ugly
I'll buy more makeup.

You say I'm fat.
I'll eat less.
You say I'm ugly .
I'll go get a surgery.

You say I'm fat
I'll stop eating.
You say I'm ugly.
I'll get another surgery.

You say I'm anorexic
Though you said I'm fat.
Why should I eat?
To please you?

You say I'm unnatural.
Though you said I'm ugly.
Why should I stop my surgeries ?
To please you?

You say I'm skin and bone.
I'll give you thanks in my grave.
You say I'm deformed.
I'll say let's wait to see the autopsy.
