Just Like You
by Ashley, 27
She wants to be just like you,
Just as smart and pretty too.
But she doesn't know what you do,
You won't even tell her if it is true.
She is so young and so nice,
She even thinks about things twice.
But now that she is looking up to you,
She wants to do all the things you do.
So when the next time you are thinking of
purging,
Think of what your little sister is doing.
For you never know what she might do,
Now that she has you to look up to.
