"Out of fear that you might worry over nothing or misunderstand me I started to lie."

March 13th

I started dieting.

But I hid that from you.

I knew you wouldn't approve

Because you told me

My pudgy stomach,

Squeezable cheeks,

And thicker thighs,

Made me very beautiful.

This fad was only going to be temporary

And I hope you won't notice

I don't want you to worry over something silly.

When you asked if I ate

I would smile and nod

Knowing my stomach was growling

When you asked me why I hid unlabeled pills in the bathroom

I would smile and say it was for my headaches

You knew to believe me

Because why would I lie?

But then guilt would loom over me

Like a dark cloud

Even my little white lies

Can hurt you.

I didn't want you to worry.

I just wanted to see you smile.
