Am I flawless enough now?


Should I use the filter black and white?

What a better way to hide.

 

We worry so much about our appearance physically, maybe not intentionally.

To hide inperfections,

To hide battle scares,

To hide things of ourselves we secretly believe are flawless,

To hide the fact that we are scared to let ourselfs be known.

 

It is time to let go, I did. I am flawless.

I am flawless because I believe I am.

I use my weaknesses as strengths,

I use my imperfections as perfections,

I use my failures as crutches and criticisms as bandages.

I am solider of my own army.

 

Should I use the filter Sepia?

I don't think so... no more.

I am going to keep my flawless original.

My flawless unedited.

I am going to keep my flawless me, because there is no one else I would want to be.
