Maybe If

By Avika

maybe if that mark bent a little to the left, i would feel happier.

maybe if its numbers decreased, i would feel better.

maybe if i ate less and did more, i would be more successful

maybe i wouldn't even need to suck it in or suck it up.

maybe if that tape measured a bit less, i would feel more electric

maybe if i stopped, i would be more energetic

maybe if i would fit their standards they would love me more

but would i love myself if my ribs would show?
