I used to be...

I used to be so confident.

I stood with my head held high.

Now I don't make eye contact.

I don't small talk. I've become so shy.

I used to be outgoing.

I sought attention and was loud.

Now I'm pretty quiet.

I don't go out. I avoid the crowd.

I used to think I was pretty.

I was reassured of this daily.

Now I don't even know.

It takes a lot more makeup lately.

I used to be thin.

My clothes were a much smaller size

Now I'm so unhappy with my appearance.

This girl... I barely recognize.

I used to take a lot of photos.

I was a bit of a camera whore.

Now, I only take selfies.

No full body shots anymore.

I miss who I was.

I miss that fun girl.

Now, I live a little more reserved.

I hide from the cruel world.

I'm a homebody & I enjoy that.

But, sometimes it would be nice to go out.

These days I care too much what others think

I'm afraid of being talked about.

"Look at her.

She used to be so pretty, so small.

What happened to her?

Doesn't she care at all?"

I used to be so sure that I would always be pretty

... oh and thin.

Now, I need to make some changes.

Starting with the outside...working in.
