Behind the Filters

There is me.

Behind the picture.

Behind the likes, the comments and replys

There's me.

Me and all my flaws

My clumisness, my attitude, my way of thinking

My seriousness, my silliness and everything in between

My pale-not always perfect skin and plain brown eyes

If it was possible to press "like" in real life

Would you still?

Knowing there isnt any Valencia or Lo Fi to cover me?

That I can't crop out parts of me that aren't "perfect"?

Because behind all of it is

Simply me.

So could you still do it?

If you can't

Well then you can keep scrolling
