Disordered Nation
The world is obsessed,
[/font]it's easy to see.
[/font]But I have confessed,[/font]
I am completely.[/font]
[/font]Constantly made aware,[/font]
Sometimes my only thought.[/font]
Feelings so many share,
[/font]These feelings will make us rot.[/font]
[/font]
[/font]To much to be expected,
[/font]always to be thin.
[/font]Constantly rejected,
[/font]because a 3 i will never fit in.[/font]
[/font]
[/font]A billion dollar industry,[/font]
will it ever stop?
[/font]Such a money making discovery,[/font]
appearance is what we are taught.[/font]
[/font]
[/font]Many go to an extreme,
[/font]as food becomes the enemy.[/font]
Restricting food and self esteem[/font],
wanting perfection so desperately.[/font]
[/font]
[/font]Disordered as a nation,
[/font]alone as a victim.
[/font]Limited by expectations,
[/font]what will we become?[/font]

Commenting Preference:
The author encourages honest critique.
"wanting perfection so desperately." This is most definitely true. We all see this idea of "perfection" in our minds and believe that it is truly perfection, but then what is perfection really? We strive to become what the world sees as perfect, but we never stop to think what it really is.... Exceptionally done! I look forward to see what else you come up with.
