She starts off very strong
Until she falls, in this time and place, she doesn't know where her body belongs.
The pain inside aches.
Bit by bit her ego breaks.
Not much fat growing under her skin.
She is wasting away, her life will never win.
The doctors tell her that she needs to gain more weight.
In her mind its one debate.
She's on a losing scale of life.
The numbers drop, just like the pounds in her sorrow and strife.
Every bone in her body is naked with just one layer of skin.
If she only knew the outcome, maybe her life could begin.
She could stop this horror picture show.
If only she could of just said "No."
Starvation, could of been her last resort.
Getting the facts straightened out just by one report.
Now she stands before her life, wondering what else she could of done.
Nobody cared to ask her why, she punished herself instead they laughed and then they would run.
Everyone watched as she slowly wasted away.
If only someone could of helped her, maybe today she would be okay.
Her life was like a ticking bomb, from one day to the next day.
As they buried her bones, there was no flesh left to recognize who was buried in the ground.
Look at all the tears, when she was slowly dying, why weren't you around?
It's never to late to tell someone that you love and care for them.
Maybe, next time for someone else, it won't be to late, just don't repeat this mistake again.
Tell someone that you love them.
Show them that there life is not a mistake.
Maybe next time you will save a life, sadly mistaken, no more bones to break.
