if i could fix one thing
Tamar Berk
If I could fix one thing it would be my face
I would move my nose to be more in place
I would take my eyes and adjust their size
And my mouth would pout like a perfect heart
If I could fix one thing
If I could fix one thing I’d like my bones to be
Just a little bit more prominent
If I could fix one thing I’d lift up my skin
So I could see the breaths I take without within
If I could fix one thing

I'm going to start my journal again
Because I'm going be a new person
I'm going get my mind back to normal
And my body back in shape
And I'm going be beautiful
And work hard in classes
And not get discouraged
And I won’t go out socializing too much
And I'm really going to change
I'm sick of myself right now
But maybe, if I pull myself together, I can do it
